Exclamation HELP!! I have been invaded by a Devil Goat!

Ok so for a while i have wanted a pet goat. i thought i would always end up with a kid, to start of with but it turned out that a sale i went to on Sunday were selling this goat. She is a bit old but she was rubbing on my leg and being so damn cute! I was told by the vendor that she was his pet and very tame. So i saved her from going to the meat market and brought her home.

She was such fun! i put her in the goat pen (as i said i wanted a goat previously and has a stable and yard ready) she followed me like a little puppy just eating and looking up at me.

Darkness fell and i locked the pen and went inside my home. Not 5 mins later and there was this bleeting and bucking at my back door. She had escaped! So i put her back into the pen and she once again escaped (climbing over an 8 foot chicken mesh fence mind you).

So i tied her up to a tree in my backyard. 3 mins later she has snapped the leather collar and "buck, buck, bleet bleet" at the back door. this time putting a massive goat head through the back door to my enclosed veranda!

tied her up again and she gnawed through the rope.

Put her in the cattle press and she pushed her way out.

Locked her in the shed and she smashed through the wooden door.

Put her out in the back paddock and she found / jumped/ climed her way back to me. Its so sad cause all she wants to do is stand beside me and get pats and hugs.

by this time it was bedtime and i was upset and very pissed off. i tried again in the shed and blocked her way with large concrete blocks. this stopped her. however its a small 2m x 2m shed which she cannot stay in longer than 1 night.

she cried all night.

this morning i tried again and put her in our calving paddock.. but she jumped the fence.. ran afetr me and head butted my car door as i tried to drive away. so it took me 3 tries to get off my property this morning.

lord only knows what my home will be like when i get home. and what i'll have to fix. and its pouring rain at the moment.

does anyone have ANY help or suggestions? has anyone ever had a naughty goat before? what should i do? i am going out of my mind and i just dont know how to make her stop! AND dont anyone DARE suggest getting another goat to keep her company!! i think she is just obsessed with being with humans.

The guy i got her from wont take her back either, as he was "having problems with her!" OH GREAT MATE thanks for mentioning that AFTER i paid you $20 for her!!
