Title: Goat clowns around at animal shelters.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-31471 GOAT CLOWNS AROUND AT ANIMAL SHELTERS VICTORIA, B.C. -- Twinkle, a playful three-year-old goat at the Good Shepherd Shelter outside Victoria, British Columbia, keeps nuns on their toes and does a bit of toe-dancing herself. Sister Mary Julia (left) takes a playful bump and Mother Cecilia Mary (right) admires Twinkle's performance. "She does this just to tease me -- Twinkle is just a clown at heart," says Mother Cecilia, 75, who founded the shelter for stray and abandoned animals in 1922 as the Order of the Sisters of the Love of Jesus. She and five other nuns care for nearly 150 dogs, cats, goats and birds and currently are conducting a fund drive for $40,000 to build an animal hospital on the 23-acre site. Richard Cardinal Cushing, Archbishop of Boston, has donated $1,000 to the campaign. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (RB-VBC-8E-64-NBM)
