We love how special Frank became to Deano that he even built him a goatel. Is it weird that we\u2019re a little jealous of his cool pad?

We loved @oracle_of_optimism&#8217;s sweet comment, &#8220;Goats are so social that it is advised to buy three at a time because if one dies and leaves one solo, a solo goat can easily die of grief. You gave Frank family. He was probably so lonely before he met you.&#8221; @Stephmahan added, &#8220;People like you are the reason people like me have a big smile on my face!! Thank you for your kindness!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">@seventhomen shared, &#8220;A black goat picked YOU. That is one epic spirit animal!&#8221; Commenters were confused by why they specifically mentioned a black goat so they followed up with, &#8220;Because black animals are usually the first to be killed in shelters because people don\u2019t adopt them. Because of the superstition that they can walk between both worlds; that they bring back luck when really they are wonderful at clearing negative energy in someone\u2019s life. But also a black goat &#8211; some people think it is satanic. I think it\u2019s magical.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Commenter @kipstar90 had our favorite reaction, &#8220;He\u2019s a beautiful creature! Rock on, Frank!&#8221; Rock on, Deano, too!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><i>This story was originally reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/pethelpful.com\/pet-news\/man-builds-abandoned-goat-a-goatel\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:PetHelpful;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">PetHelpful<\/a> on Nov 15, 2025, where it first appeared in the <a href=\"https:\/\/pethelpful.com\/pet-news\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Pet News;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Pet News<\/a> section.
