Genie the Goat

By Chris R.

Genie the goat arrived at Possum Valley in May 2016. She was just over a week old. Genie was found alone at the Midland Saleyards by a worker. Her goat herd had long gone. Her rescuer had heard cries, discovering Genie in the bushes. Despite attempts to reunite her with her goat family, they did not return.  

Genie enjoyed life in Fremantle with a new caring family for a week after her rescue, but they recognised that in time, Genie's needs could not be met in a small urban dwelling. Making some phone calls, they eventually contacted Possum Valley and we were happy to offer Genie a forever home in the ‘Goatlands’.

Genie is now over two months old and currently residing in the warm of the Possum Valley living room. She will join her kid kin outdoors when a little older. She currently loves jumping up and down on the couch, skidding along the floor boards and doing laps of the kitchen. Genie recently had a great adventure at Houndstooth Studio, joining Pearl for a photo shoot with Alex Cearns. Much fun was had in front the camera and many lovely images collected, despite Genie's energy in the studio.
