It was time.

The publicist will not miss the butts.
She is very bruised.

He is doing very well.
She talked to his new Farm owner.
They love him.
He is very spoiled.

So goodbye Jim the goat.
Goodbye

AbbyDay - I Remember my Kid, Flash the Goat

As you all know my kid, Flash the goat has left the Farm.
I was very sad when he left but I know he is at a nice big Farm with his brothers Tim and Lew the goats. And a horse! He is doing just fine but I want to remember him now and maaaa a proper goodbye.

We all remember when he was born.
He was such a cute little guy. 

He got his name because of that stripe on his side.
He certainly grew into his name - he was a fast little goat!

He loved to play with his brother Jim the goat.
They were something!

In fact on his last day on the Farm he spent the day sleeping on a spool with Jim.
Aren't they cute?

So we all maaaa goodbye to Flash but we know he will be a Happy Goat on his new Farm.

Extra AbbyDay - We Maaaa Goodbye to Flash the Goat

It had to happen.
We knew it was coming.
But that did not make it any easier on any of us.
Especially me.
But yesterday we maaaed our goodbyes to my kid, Flash the goat.

He drove off to his new Farm.
The good news is it is the same Farm where Lew and Tim are living so he will have friends!
But poor Flash was NOT happy about leaving.
He maaaaed and maaaaed and MAAAAAAED!
But I know and the publicist knows that he will be one spoiled little goat on his new Farm. She has visited there and he has lots of room to roam and plenty of good stuff to eat.
He gets grain and treats and there is even a HORSE to go exploring with.

I am a sad nanny today and I can't look back yet.
I will do that on my regular AbbyDay on Tuesday.
So for now we will just wish Flash the goat a great big GOODBYE!

We will miss you Flash.
We will miss you.


ps: Pricilla's rich soaps are being given away on Catster today. So you can go and ENTER to make yourselves feel better.

AbbyDay - Isn't My Kid Flash Just the Cutest?

It's AbbyDay - the best day of the week. The day for all things Abby and that means my kid!


I have the cutest kids.
I do.
It's a fact.
How could I not?
I am goat perfection!


My kid Flash is pretty darn close to perfect himself.
Just look -

 - he is KIDORABLE!
But of course he is - he is an Abbygoat after all!

He has my profile.
The PERFECT goat profile.

The publicist says he is just squeezable - whatever that means.
(She had better NOT try and squeezable me!)

I think he is the cutest goat on the Farm - barring ME of course.
I am AbbyGoat and therefore the most beautifullest goat in the world.

But it seems that my little guy is a bit shy.
He will outgrow that I am sure.
He has time. He will be here for about another month so I have time to work with him.
Then he is going to the same Farm as Tim and Lew!
Isn't that exciting?
He will have good friends and family to join when he leaves here.

He will be a Happy Goat forever!

AbbyDay - I Send Flash on a SPY Mission

It's AbbyDay, the best day of the week. DON'T YOU FORGET IT!


You will recall that I was a bit...disappointed that the male person did not build me a goat palace.
I was a bit....shocked that he built a new chicken house.
Pfffft!


I decided I needed a spygoat to check out the inside of it to make sure the male person was not hiding something from me.

I sent in my kid, Flash the goat!
That little door is just his size!
He maaaed to his brother Jim to come help.
First they reconnoitered the entry.
They are smart kids!

Then they started to climb the ramp.
Flash was making sure it was sturdy.
He did not want it to fall on Sarah the goat.

Then he looked in!
What did he see?
CHICKENS!
Lots and lots of chickens.
So I guess the male person is not trying to hide something from me.


I still think he should have built me a goat palace.


He is feeling a little bit better. His fever is gone. He thanks everyone for sending along the positive thoughts. So far the publicist has not caught the flu. Keep your hooves crossed!

Through a Glass, Dark Goat

The publicist thinks she is so funny.
She was sitting at her dining room table and she looked out her window and what did she she but....

AbbyGoat stuffing her face.
We were ALL out for a graze but Abby eats like a pig with enthusiasm.

Do you think she could stuff any more grass into her mouth?
I do not.
You will also note that I am nowhere to be seen.
I am not a dumb goat.

When AbbyGoat is hogging the green I stay far, far away.
I do NOT want to get butt.

Sarah and the kids showed up soon - they have more courage than I do.

Those little ones are sure growing big, aren't they?

Won't be long before Jim goes to his new Farm in September. We will miss him. So far Flash does not have a home and Louise will be having her kid in September so it will still be a Farm with lots of fun going on.

And pretty sites to see.

And AbbyGoat....darn.

You saw Jim the Goat "helping" the male person yesterday.
Ha!
He was really just playing and plotting his escape.
It's true.

Just look! Does he look like he is working?!
NO!
He and Flash the goat are PLAYING.
Just like I maaaaed.

They raced UP the boards.
Then they turned around and raced down.
Silly kids!

Then they started all over again.
I wish I still had that kind of energy.

Bad Goats, Bad Goats! Whatchagonnado?!

I continue with a theme today my readers.
You remember that on AbbyDay we sang about Bad Does, Bad Does.
Well today it's Bad Goats, Bad Goats in general.
(Bad Flash in specific)


We all know that we are not allowed in the hay pile.

Uh - oh!
Bad goats, bad goats.
Whatcha gonna do?


It does look like Louise is maaaaing to the little kid.

He does seem to be listening!
What?! Me?!
A baaaaaad goat!

Not MEEEEEE!
I am not baaaad he seems to be maaaaing.


Bad goats, bad goats
Whatcha gonna do?


Well given his name I would say that he is going to be gone......

In a FLASH!
Bad goats, bad goats.
Whatcha gonna do?

Flash the Goat Goes Down to the Big Pen

It was a big, big day for Flash the Goat.
He was going to come down to the big pen to meet all of us goats.
Not that Abbygoat would let any of us near him.
Harumph!

As if we would hurt him!
We just wanted to sniff him.

Or maybe lick him a little.
What is wrong with that?
I haven't had a kid to lick in a long time.

But Abbygoat wasn't going to let me near her kid!
I WOULD NOT HURT FLASH!

Stupid AbbyGoat!
I do not deserve the Goat Stare of Death!


And look! Flash does not care - he just wants to bounce

and play!
Just like any kid who has freedom for the first time.

Abby needs to CHILL!
Let Flash be Flash.

AbbyDay - I am Pleased to Introduce My New Kid, Flash the Goat!

It's AbbyDay, the best day of the week. And this is the bestest of the best of AbbyDays because I am bringing you a new generation of Abbygoats!

I had my kid yesterday.
This is Flash the goat.
Everyone was surprised that there was only one kid in there.

I was one big goat!
But that is how it goes sometimes.
I was also one hungry goat - BUUUUUUURP!


The publicist knew on Sunday that I would soon have a new kid but he did not arrive until some time on Monday.

I surprised her when she came into the barn!
There was little Flash already born and cleaned up.
Wasn't that nice of me?
And she says I'm the mean goat!
Pffffft! I showed her!

My little Flash is very cute if I do say so myself.
He has one long white stripe on on side - that is how he got his name.

And a chicken like splotch on the other.

Almost like Brewster the goat's chicken splotch.
Isn't that funny?

There will be much more of little Flash to come.
It seems he takes after his nanny - check out that look!


Oh, Pricilla wanted to say thank you to everyone who said she could come to stay with them. If I could I would ship her there myself.
Oh, did I maaaa that out loud?
