Monkey's Got Attitude

I caught Monkey (AKA Velvet) napping on Thor's bed today.  This is very unusual because Thor is very moody. Most of the sheep and goats (along with the chicken, ducks and cats) keep a safe distance from Thor.   He has been known to lash out at any critter who tries to tip-toe into the barn past him while he's lying on the bed.  Monkey enjoys special status due to her "attitude."  Nobody messes with Monkey, not even Thor.  When I put out cracked corn for the goats, they stay their distance or Monkey will whip those horns around and hit them in the face.  When Monkey decided to bed down on Thor's comfy pad, he found another place to chill.  Monkey has lovely blue eyes, and lustrous black fleece, enhancing her "status" on the farm.  She is the daughter of my legendary Celeste.
