Journal Entry #6

[doctorkishitani]

I'm not sure if anyone else has been having this issue with their goats, but Zazzerpan has been following me around and bleating very insistently for quite a while now and I'm getting to be very worried about him. I know that I've been feeding him sufficiently and I've checked him for injuries or possible disease a number of times, so I'm really not sure of what could be wrong.

Any input or suggestions would be much appreciated.

i sometimes sleep out there >3>

he doesnt trip over his ears so much anymore which is good i guess but it was so cute you know?

[doctorkishitani]

Does he like the company? Maybe I should try sleeping out with Zazzerpan as well.

And I'm very glad Durden has learned not to trip over his ears! I imagine that would have inconvenienced him quite a bit. Were they exceptionally long, or does Durden just have very short legs?

[moveslikejaeger]

yeah he curls up right against my chest its so cute

no i think he is just growing out of them they were very long and he does kind of have stubby legs and also he tends to keep his head down a lot i should have probably named him jack but oh well

[doctorkishitani]

He does? It sounds like goats need much more affection than I thought they did. I'll probably try sleeping out with Zazzerpan sometime this week.

It sounds like Durden is just going through a growth spurt, so there's probably no cause for alarm. And Jack is an excellent name as well. Perhaps you could call him Jack Durden.

he didnt at first it took him a little to get used to me but it sounds like zazzy is pretty well used to you so yeah

yeah thats what i figured that or he was just a shy little goatie also the fact that you have no idea what im referencing with his name makes it even funnier

[doctorkishitani]

He does seem very engaged when I'm around him, so it's probably safe to say that he recognizes me now.

You do raise a good point. Durden might have been shy. How old would you say he is? If he was separated from his mother too young, that might explain any withdrawn behaviour.

[pause]

Was his name a reference?

[moveslikejaeger]

yes probably!

i dunno? he is a kid they all look the same to me i only know durden because he is the only one that falls over when you suddenly jump into the pen

yes its from a book
