This baby goat must have suffered a head injury but we have no idea how.

She was found in the road, unable to stand, and neighbors lifted her to a safe spot on their verandah. Sometimes shepherds will leave an injured kid to die rather than to seek treatment. This must have been the sad case with Marshmallow. Luckily, the villagers knew about Animal Aid, and called us to rescue her.

She had no visible wounds, but she couldn’t lift her head at first. We treated Marshmallow for pain, hydrated her with an IV drip, and lay her down in a cozy secure little spot knowing that rest was essential. Within hours, her appetite roared (as goats love to nibble almost constantly.) Up she sat and began to munch on grass. Meet Marshmallow now, an authentic living angel. To meet Snow is simply to fall in love.
