Goat on an adventure captured after wandering into Northern California Starbucks
A wayward goat possibly in need of a latte was finally caught after she barged into a Starbucks in Northern California.
Rohnert Park police Sgt. Rick Bates said the department received several calls Sunday morning about a goat roaming around a strip mall, and employees at a Starbucks were able to capture the goat's attention by offering her a banana. That wasn't good enough for this goat on a mission, and she made her way inside the Starbucks and promptly began to eat a cardboard box.
Bates made sure to take plenty of photos of the goat inside the coffee shop to post on Facebook before hauling her away to the Rohnert Park Animal Shelter, where she was inspected and found to be in good condition. She was later reunited with her owners, who said they planned to build a new fence around their property.
