So, we decided to get another goat for G. G. to hang out with.  I actually think that she would have been fine just hanging out with the llamas, as she gets along with them very well.   The bad part is that she can&#8217;t be in the same part of the pasture as they are during the day, due to the limitations of the pasture fence at the farm.   G. G.&#8217;s pen is next to the pasture, but if the llamas wander to the opposite side of the pasture, she wouldn&#8217;t be able to see them.  That meant for her to have some constant companionship, she needed someone to be in the same pen that she was.  What would make a better penmate than another goat?<br \/>\nSo, without further ado, I&#8217;d like you all to meet <a title=\"Casey's Photo Gallery\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.minnesotageek.net\/gallery\/casey\">Casey the Goat<\/a>.  She is several months younger, and quite a bit smaller than G. G., but equally cute, don&#8217;t you think?<\/p>\n<p>-Pete<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was certainly surprised at Christmas time when Steve presented my wife with a G.
