NOBODY knows how they goat there.
Wangi Wangi resident Anny Salt woke up on Friday morning to make her usual cup of coffee, what she saw perched on the roof of her house was anything but usual.
Two goats, which she later discovered were called Whipper and Snipper, had taken up residence by her windowsill.
"I yelled at my partner to come out and have a look as it's something you don't see every day," she said.
"[We] had a good laugh.
"I posted it on the [Facebook] page and left them there to chill out, when I saw they got up I went and sat with them and fed them bread until I could grab their collars."
What started as an innocuous post on the local community Facebook page because a suburb-wide search to find Whipper and Snipper's owner.
All of 15 minutes later, Arron Norris' phone was going off with multiple messages about his daughters Grace and Matilda's missing goats.
"We actually only just got them, they were heading out to our farm but the kids wanted them to stay in Wangi for a while so they could play with them until we put them to work eating all the weeds around the farm," he said.
Mr Norris realised the mischievous silly billies had gone missing on Thursday, upon investigation he saw they had jumped the fence leaving a trail of droppings behind them.
"We followed the trail until we couldn't find anymore, so we kept looking but in the wrong direction," he said.
Whipper and Snipper were found about three kilometres from home.
"My phone just started going off," Mr Norris said.
"We were out looking for them, I thought it was a joke until I saw the photo, I was glad they were okay and hadn't gotten into somebody's gardens and eaten all the plants, or been attacked by a dog or hit by a car.
"[They are] safe and sound now on the farm."
Whipper and Snipper were almost the ones that goat away, and Ms Salt said the whole of Wangi was following the events as they unfolded.
