Officers named the goat Josh and said he got a nice meal of hay after being rescued. Now, he's off to the Animal Care Centers of NYC, which works to find forever homes for abandoned animals.
He will then head to a New Jersey animal sanctuary, where comedian Jon Stewart and his wife sent a bull, which was headed for a slaughter house, that had escaped on a Queens street several years ago, the Associated Press reported.
