Mitzee

Like a lot of people, in my house hold pets are just as much a part of the family as my sister, grandpa, or even me. Sometimes, I think my parents think my cat is more a part of the family than I am. And a big part of my family is my goats!

I have two adorable and beautiful goats. The older one’s name is Shadow, because even if there are a bunch of green things to eat, he will follow right behind you and stay by you. Our other goat’s name is Mitzee. I am not quite sure why this is her name. She had it when we got her and I guess we thought she would get too confused if we called her something else. This is a picture of Mitzee I took on a Pentax B&W camera when I was in photo I as a sophomore. I really like this picture because it truly captures the essence of her personality. In a word…derp. She is the weirdest creature God decided to invent. She is tiny, not even surpassing the height of my knees (the knees of a girl who is five foot one) and has the loudest mouth ever. Sometimes I hear her and it sounds like a burly man has the hiccups. She always has to be up in your personal space. When I was younger I thought it was because she just really liked people. Now I realize that she thinks everyone exists for the sole purpose of feeding her.

In any case, I love both of my goats so much. They are the cutest things and I love them so much. Naturally, they would be the subject so of an entire roll of film (mainly because they couldn’t stand still long enough for me to take a picture.)
