Man Is Best Friends With Pygmy Goat. Watching Them Play Is The Cutest Experience Ever!

When an adorable little pygmy goat named Benjamin was born, his overwhelmed mother rejected him for his twin brother. She could only support one of her offspring, but luckily Tom Horsfield was there to save the day. He took the orphaned goat back to his cottage in the U.K. and decided to be a surrogate father/best friend for the little guy as long as he needed the company.

“His mother gave birth to twins but unfortunately she couldn’t rear two of them so we had to take one on board,”Horsfield said in the clip, adding that he’s hand-rearing Benji at home, feeding him five or six times a day from a bottle.

The prancing pygmy goat follows Horsfield wherever he goes, so naturally Benji’s made a few friends along the way. He follows his bestie to the nursery where he works everyday, and frolics around munching on flowers and nuzzling patrons.

Horsfield feeds the little guy five or six times every day from a bottle in hopes that he will gain enough strength make it on his own.

Anyone that wants to visit Benji will have to be quick. The adorable little guy will be set out to pasture in about two months time… but for now, he’ll just keep prancing his way into our hearts!
