**Goat breaks into home, eats cake **

TOWN OF WESTFORD – What do you get when a goat follows a dog into a house?
For Sherry Shirley of Westford, the answer is a big mess.

When she opened the front door of her home on Lake Road to let her dog in Saturday morning, a full-grown goat burst into the house, jumped onto a kitchen counter and helped itself to a freshly baked chocolate cake, according to the Dodge County Sheriff’s Department.

Deputies responded to a call from Shirley at 11:43 Saturday morning, but a neighbor had dragged the goat from the home by its horns before officers arrived, patrol captain Molly Soblewski said.

“The goat didn’t do a lot of damage. It knocked some dishes to the floor that broke and began eating the chocolate cake she had just made,” Soblewski said.

The chocolate cake caper, however, was far from a perfect crime. Deputies followed the goat’s tracks to a nearby farm on Mill Road and had it behind bars by 12:35 p.m. Saturday.
Soblewski said the owners of the goat will not be cited.

“It was just an unfortunate circumstance,” she said. “I feel sorry for the lady, but it is kind of funny.”

Goddamn goats! :mad: :mad:

I suspect a Magic Goat!
