I do not have any experience diapering goaties, but I did diaper a cat many years ago. I just cut a hole in the diaper where I thought the tail would be. Now with a wee boy goatie I should think the problem is getting it long enough to cover his plumbing and then slender enough to go around his mid section.

A few years ago, someone on BYH posted pictures of her indoor goatie in diapers. What I remember is the packaging tape around the middle. HA, I impressed myself and found it!

Someone else diapered their indoor goatie and suggested putting the butt side to the front, backwards in other words.

You do realize we will need a ton, a ton mind you, of pictures with your indoor goatie! Please and thank you, of course.

Thanks!!! I found an idea someone used for dogs I think I'm going to try! My mom is super crafty and I think she will be able to make this pretty easily

@animalmom I followed that link and copied the picture and posted it on Devonviolet's thread. I was telling her just this very morning that she could diaper little Woody and enjoy him in the house.....:lol:

Diaper on the butt, diaper around the middle, and a onesie to hold it all on.

Experience talking here. ;)

Genius! I failed miserably at the diapering of the goats but I never thought of a onsie to keep it on! Makes me want more bottle babies....not!;)
