Leanne Lauricella was contemplating quitting her job as a corporate event planner in New York City when she and her husband adopted two adorable baby goats.
Although she wanted to make a career change that would permit her to work closer to home, Lauricella had no idea that her passion project would turn into a full-time job.
On the day that she quit her job, Instagram featured a snap of one of her goats on their home page. Overnight her following blew up by ten times. Now, with the help of more than 400,000 followers, her goats are paying for their own surgeries, medicine and onesies!
The Lauricelles care for over 40 goats at home and on their 30-acre rental property with the assistance of a full staff of caretakers.
All of the special needs babies they rescued require diapers and onesies to keep them in place. The little goats are fitted with special prostheses that are held on with veterinary tape.
Some of the babies suffered from third degree burns or frostbite. The damage was so painful that they needed emergency care and special rehabilitation.
But each little goat is well looked after and loved.
