Blind Baby Rescue Goat Only Calms Down When Wearing Her Duck Costume



We've all heard of rescue animals and rescue organizations, but one that's solely focused on goats? Really? And they dress them up in darling costumes? It almost sounds like a fake news story, but we promise you it's not.[post_ads] The story of this one tiny goat in particular only seems too cute to be true! Read on to learn more about this precious creature!

This adorable little baby goat's name is Polly.

She is being cared for at Goats of Anarchy, a goat rescue group in New Jersey. Polly is blind and suffers from anxiety and other neurological issues. She often cries and runs around in a panic when the group's owner Leanne Lauricella can't be found.

At least she did — until the duck costume came along!

What started out as a simple Halloween costume and an opportunity for some cute photos has effectively changed Polly's life.

They quickly discovered that when Polly has the costume on, she instantly becomes calm and relaxed.

"She goes into a little trance," Leanne said, "She just closes her eyes and she's out." Now, whenever the wee goat is hit with a bout of anxiety, out comes the costume.

It also comes in handy when there are errands to run and Polly can't be left alone.

The costume goes on and sure enough — little Polly is as happy and docile as a sleeping baby.

Leanne recently tried something new with a young male handicapped goat named Pocket.

When she rested Pocket on top of Polly's back, Polly approved. "It was almost like that duck costume," said Leanne. "I've noticed that anytime he's lying next to her, she just gets calm. I've never seen her do that with another goat here."

Leanne hopes the two will stay close forever, and that over time, Polly won't need her duck suit anymore.

Of course, that would be great news for Polly and Pocket, but sad news for the rest of us who won't get to see any more adorable pictures!
