Giving a goat for Christmas might be so last year, dahling, but there’s still a healthy business in goats as beneficiary gifts.
Oxfam today reports that its Oxfam Unwrapped catalogue has so far ‘sold’ “over 6,000 goats and 1,100 donkeys”.
They add: “our limited edition four-legged friends are running off the shelves”.
