GOATS

7 Months Old

Kit came to us with his sister Kat on Valentine’s Day at only five days old, after losing their mother when they were just three days old. Both babies suffered from failure of passive transfer after not receiving enough colostrum and arrived sick and needing immediate care. Kit was the stronger of the two, eagerly taking his bottles while we worked around the clock to give both babies the best chance at survival.

Since they arrived on Valentine’s Day, it only seemed fitting to name the pair Kit & Kat after the candy. ❤️

Kit has grown from that tiny bottle baby into a healthy, affectionate, mischievous member of the KWRR family. These days, his biggest concerns are snacks, attention, and figuring out exactly what kind of trouble the goats can get into next. 🐐

7 Months Old

Kat came to us with her brother Kit at only five days old after losing their mother when they were just three days old.

Both babies suffered from failure of passive transfer after not receiving enough of their mother’s colostrum, but Kat was critically ill with neonatal scours and faced a very uncertain future. She required antibiotics, fluids, pain medication, electrolytes, and around-the-clock bottle feeding while we fought to get her strong enough to survive. Thankfully, that tiny, fragile baby fought right alongside us and grew into the healthy goat she is today.

Now Kat is affectionate, curious, completely spoiled, and always ready to involve herself in whatever is happening around the ranch. Looking at her today, it’s hard to believe she was once the little girl we were simply hoping would make it through another day. ❤️🐐

6 Months Old

Puddles came to KWRR for what was supposed to be a little goat-sitting vacation… and apparently nobody ever established a checkout date.

😂 Somewhere between escaping his pen, stealing hay, begging for snacks, drinking out of the pool, and attempting to invite himself into the house, Puddles quietly became a permanent resident. He is affectionate, ridiculously mischievous, and firmly believes every rule at KWRR is merely a suggestion.

Puddles has earned his place as one of the ranch’s biggest personalities and the unofficial leader of the Chaos Crew. What started as “we’re just watching the goat” turned into “well… I guess we own another goat.” And honestly, KWRR wouldn’t be nearly as entertaining without him. 🐐😂❤️

6 Months Old

Marshmallow came to KWRR alongside his brother Puddles for what was supposed to be temporary goat-sitting—and, well, neither one ever left. 😂 Unlike his chaos-loving brother, Marshmallow has always been the sweet, snuggly one of the pair.

Raised as a bottle baby, he absolutely loves people and has never been convinced that goats are supposed to live outside. Some of his favorite early days at KWRR were spent curled up on the couch taking naps and snuggling with Weston like two little best friends.

He may occasionally join Puddles in questionable decision-making, but at heart, Marshmallow is our affectionate little love bug. What started as goat-sitting turned into family, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. 🐐❤️
