A nanny goat known as Fable is described as a miracle goat
after it was stabbed five times in the chest and abdomen area was left to decay
in Phillipi Informal Settlement. The goat had been repeatedly stabbed before
being tied to a tree in the Siqalo informal settlement.
The Animal Welfare Society of SA (AWS) spokesperson Allan
Perrins said it was a miracle for the goat to survive as the nursing staff
had worked around the clock to ensure the goat remained alive.
The organisation said the goat was responding well to
treatment and enjoying the tranquility of their farmyard. "We flushed her
wounds for the umpteenth time to keep infection at bay and she knowingly stood
dead still, despite it being an uncomfortable procedure," said Perrins.
Fable will be taken to Greyton Farm Animal to be with other
rescued animals where she can safely live out the rest of her life.
