Adoptar a Meh

Mestizo · Desconocido · Senior · 20 años

Queen Meh, if she loves you, she loves you. If not, run! Meh was our first goat at the finca, with us from the very beginning. She was previously rescued and bottle fed as a poor baby. She had a hard time growing up and was attacked by a pack of dogs, twice. Her ears were ripped in two parts where they didn't heal back together. She also had deformation in her horns which mean they grew round into her eyes if not monitored. She had regular phantom pregnancies and was unable to actually get pregnant, which is why she ended up with us. Despite all this she was feisty and was a real character, always found putting her head through the cave house kitchen asking for scraps! She was always “the old goat”, no one quite understood how she was still going! Time and time again, she proved everyone wrong. Just when it seemed like the end, Meh would bounce back. They say cats have 9 lives, but we think Meg had more. She was known for her grumpy, demanding personality and we wouldn’t have had her any other way. That strong character left a lasting and unforgettable impression on everyone who met her. Meh wasn’t just part of the sanctuary, she was the sanctuary for so many of us. At over 20 years old and having been diagnosed with cancerous tumours years ago, Meh had already defied the odds for a long time. We managed her care closely over the years, giving her everything she needed to stay comfortable and happy. However, in the last few months, alongside the colder and harsher weather, we began to see a decline. Her severe osteoarthritis worsened and, despite medication, she was clearly struggling. We had to separate her from the herd due to bullying and slowly, Meh began to show us that she was getting tired. In her own way, she let us know it was time. Meh passed away surrounded by love, appreciated for everything she was, and held by the people whose lives she touched so deeply. She leaves behind a huge space, one that can never truly be filled, but also a lifetime of memories, resilience, and character that we will never forget.
