Kind of related? I used to work at an elder care facility that had “therapy goats.” Lil baby goats that needed bottle feeding. We’d bring them to the residents’ rooms for cuddles and they would get to take turns feeding them. They were so delighted by them, it was damn cute.
What do you think we do with sheep once they no longer provide a sufficient amount of wool?
I think the joke is that those aren’t sheep. They’re goats.
I thought it was that fur includes the skin of the animal. Wool (which is used in yarn production) does not include the skin of the animal.
The joke works on multiple levels which is nice.
Could be cashmere, that comes from goats.
Force them into an unending elder care program designed to squeeze every last penny from them, while providing the bare minimum of care possible?
