You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy. ™
Psychic Sheep!
They bother me, much like elephants that never forget and cats who waste lives they should otherwise preserve.
Psychic Sheep?
Try saying that 3 times fast.
So what makes a walking lamb chop so prescient?
Cancer.
BAAAAAA.
DATELINE:Wiltshire, England.
It’s here that a taciturn sheep is being hailed as a hero for detecting a deadly tumor.
The sheep’s name is Alfie. He is five-years-old. Normally he’s docile as a tortoise on Ambien.
But one day, while taking medicine, the former Angora Sweater got his wool all in a bunch and began head butting his owner Emma Turner.
Did the crazy sheep think the medicine was lamb chop meat? Was Alfie going all cannibal in his little sheep brain?
“Alfie is normally really well behaved but that particular day he went nuts and it took three of us to hold him down,” Turner explained.
“He headbutted me repeatedly across the chest and I thought there must be something wrong with him, maybe I should take him to the vet. A few days later, a terrific bruise came up on my chest and I noticed in the middle of the bruise there was a lump.”
With Alfie snorting crazy in the pasture, the 41-year-old went to the hospital. And guess what; they told Turner she was in the early stages of breast cancer.
“The doctors and nurses said that if Alfie hadn’t done what he did, when he did it, I wouldn’t have found the lump for a few years, by which time it would have spread,” she said.
“Everyone at the hospital is convinced that Alfie saved my life.”

And like any farm hero, a FACEBOOK page for sheep crusaders has been established for Alfie.
Surprisingly, it has nothing to do with FARMVILLE.
Baaaaaa.
Crazy story.™
