Suffering from anxiety, this goat only needs her duck suit to calm her

This 6-month-baby-goat named Polly has a disorder. She suffers from separation anxiety and neurological issues and is partially blind.


She was rescued by a foundation called 'Goats of Anarchy'. One day her owner got her a cute duck costume and that changed her life forever.



In an Instagram post, the owner wrote, "Some of yall don't believe me. Polly loves her duck suit. Polly NEEDS her duck suit. It puts her right to sleep. Tonight she was feeling anxious because I'm too busy to sit with her. I put her duck suit on and she's totally happy. It instantly soothes her! Its the strangest cutest thing. This is not abuse, this is love."

Lauricella, the owner reveals, before she got the coat, Polly would be frantically running around and crying if she couldn't find her owner. She would also show some other anxiety related behavior. She would find a corner of a wall in the house and just start sucking on the wall. Now those days re over thanks to duck outfit. She adds that there's something about that duck costume that calms her. “She goes into a little trance. She just closes her eyes and she’s out," said Lauricella.

Here are some more pictures of the goat.
