Sarvesh Kumar Pal, a resident of Siluapur village in Kannauj, Uttar Pradesh, definitely has a unique pet, a goat, which loves to gorge on paper products. Because of his pet, people from the nearby villages are flocking to his house to take a selfie with the goat, these days.
To achieve such popularity, Sarvesh, a farmer, had to endure the loss of Rs. 66,000. The goat had chewed up the entire amount without even burping for once.
Sarvesh was shocked when he found that the goat had chewed Rs. 66,000, which he had kept in his trouser’s pocket before he went to take a shower. After he came out from the washroom, he saw the goat savouring the currency notes.
Though Sarvesh raised an alarm, it didn’t help him. He managed to save only two notes as rest of them were already being swallowed by the paper-loving goat. Even the two notes that Sarvesh took out from the mouth of the goat was in a damaged condition.
The notes, all in Rs. 2000 denomination, were meant to buy bricks for construction work currently underway in Sarvesh’s house.
“I was taking a bath and the money was kept in the pocket of my trousers. Notorious for eating all kinds of paper products, the goat seized the chance to munch on its favourite food. What to do, my goat is like a child to me,” Sarvesh further added.
“Later, two notes wet in saliva could be retrieved in a damaged condition,” he added.
Since then guests from neighbourhood to nearby areas are visiting Sarvesh’s house to have a glimpse of the goat. Many are even taking selfies with the goat.
“Some people even suggested to take the goat to a veterinarian and get some medicines to make the animal vomit and recover the lost money. Many asked me to sell the goat to a butcher as it has brought misfortune to us,” Sarvesh said.
One of the farmer’s neighbours suggested him to hand over the goat to the police as it had committed a serious crime. “We can’t be cruel to our pet. It is like our own child,” Sarvesh’s wife said.
