This Escaped Goat Took a Trip to Starbucks

Milly, an 11-year-old goat from Rohnert Park, Calif., strolled into her local Starbucks unaccompanied by any human Sunday morning, according to the New York Post. The Starbucks staff attempted to give Milly a banana, but she wasn’t interested and decided to chew on a box instead, according to the Associated Press.

The local police department picked Milly up and took her to a shelter. Through the Rohnert Park PD’s Facebook page, Milly’s owner found her and retrieved her at once. The Inquistir reports only lives a couple doors down from the coffee shop, so she didn’t get too far after her wild escape.


“She’s a really happy and sweet goat. She’s also pretty curious,” 12-year-old Alan Ergenbright, one of Milly’s owners, told the Santa Rosa Press Democrat. Hopefully Milly appeased her sense of adventure on her latest coffee run—She might have a hard time getting out again, as her owners plan on building a fence to make sure she stays out of trouble.
