Baby Goat Rejected by Mother Becomes Best Friends with Human Instead

Meet Benjamin the pygmy goat who was born at Pot House Hamlet in the U.K. Sadly Benjamin got rejected by his mother because she had twins and was unable to take care of both of them. That wasn’t a problem though as Tom Horsfield was there to take care of him.

Ever since the two of them met they have been pretty much inseparable with Benjamin following Tom literally everywhere he goes!. Benjamin gets fed 5 – 6 times a day and will be looked after until he is old enough to rejoin his friends in the countryside and graze on his own. For now though Benjamin has become something of a celebrity locally.

Benjamin the pygmy goat was rejected by his mother.

Thankfully Tom Horsfield was there to step in and take the role of parent / carer.

And ever since then the two of them have become inseparable. Benjamin follows him wherever he goes.

At the moment Tom feeds Benjamin 5 – 6 times a day.

Eventually Benjamin will be released back into the countryside once he is old enough.

But for now he’s living the dream…  Just look at him run!
