Sorry to hear of your pain. If you find yourself up for critters, id suggest sheep, either hair or wool. They are very easy keepers especially compared to goats. Its super calming watching them graze too - i'll often take a lawn chair out on a nice day and just watch them for hours... and they come up for scritches once in a while.
Thank you, I've been in physical therapy the past few months to try to get it more under control, and I'm seeing some slow progress. I'm just hoping to get it managed enough that I can get going with my career and work on achieving the goals I'd like to live my life comfortably. I was diagnosed back in late spring and I'm just now at a point where I'm handling it reasonably okay mentally (most of the time). I have my cats and rodents to keep me company for now, and I'm very thankful for that.
I really love the look and big personality of goats, and I'd like to have dairy breeds to make my own milk/soap/cheese etc. I don't know as much about sheep! I do like hair sheep though, dunno how common they are but I discovered the Barbados Black Belly recently and they're just gorgeous! I'll have to read up now on the care differences between goats and hair sheep.
