Hollywood has always been full of strange, mismatched odd couples: Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller, Woody and Soon-Yi, Marilyn Manson and Evan Rachel Wood, Courteney Cox and David Arquette, Harrison and Calista, Liza Minnelli and David Gest, Ted Danson and Whoopi Goldberg, Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie, Michael Jackson and anyone…
But the latest celebrity couple to attract our attention isn't in Hollywood at all…No, this odd couple first made headlines across the pond at Pennywell Farm and Wildlife Centre in England.
So who is this strange duo?
The Daily Mail is reporting that a very loving boxer named Billy has seemingly adopted an abandoned baby goat as his surrogate child. Yes, Billy's found a new full time sidekick in a tiny and adorable kid called Lilly.
Lilly was abandoned by her mother when she was only a few hours old. She was the smallest of the litter and animal experts suggest that it is normal for a mother to abandon the weaker child in order to care for the 2 stronger ones.
Billy took an unusual interest in Lilly when she was just a few hours old and the pair have developed a pretty amazing bond over the last month. Billy's pet parent Elizabeth Tozer told The Daily Mail, "Lilly follows Billy around which is really quite amusing to watch and Billy sleeps with the goat and cleans her mouth after she feeds."
The adorable duo has become a very popular attraction at the animal centre and the staff plans to see how their unusual relationship develops. We hear wedding bells (but not in a red state).
