It’s enough to make you wanna call your momma.
A young goat named Shawarma D. Goat has left the internet bleary-eyed and weepy after a human family from the Philippines helped the kid reunite with its herd in the countryside.
A video depicting Shawarma’s reunion was initially posted on Reddit by u/kdearceo. It earned some 120,000 “up-votes” of approval on the message-board site.
“Meet Shawarma, a lost kid we found trapped in a pit and reunited with his herd after 24 hours,” Arceo captioned the video on a YouTube video posted Thursday.
Knowing the defenseless creature may be in danger if left on its own, Arceo and his family brought the kid home to keep warm and attempt feeding it — not an easy transition for the tot, Arceo explained in the comments thread on Reddit.
Arceo, who seemed happy to play parent for the evening, searched the internet for information about goat care to help them get through the night.
“I’ve googled that they are sensitive to cold, best I could give was body heat. I’ve also learned that they are social creatures so sleeping right beside him on the sofa solved the intense crying,” he wrote.
