Aw. That's quite sweet; this sheep was at the end of its life and slowly losing what understanding it had of the world, and these two innocent children kept it company and gave it unconditional love the whole time.
Well now I'm gonna be wondering if the stray cat that comes up to my dogs to rub against them has a brain worm affecting her similar to how toxoplasmosis affects mice.

That's funny, but unless the girls are eating undercooked sheep brain, I don't think it'd infect them.
Just sharing because parasites do have specific life cycles, and people used to think that you could get infected with HIV by kissing and hugging.

You can, possibly, get it by kissing. If both kissers are frenching and have bleeding mouth wounds, HIV might be transmitted.
But people used to also think you could get it from toilet seats or even just shaking hands (a practice I'm not fond of for other reasons).

RFK Jr. came to mind. But he doesn't seem very pettable.

More likely she was owned and learned to like the family dogs before she became a stray. Maybe get her checked for a chip?
Kolanaki@pawb.social · 7 pts · 175d
She was born on my porch so I know she was never owned.
Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 175d
Oh, well then! She's just a free-range member of your family then.
