In Pictures: Rescued ram enjoys home comforts

Meet Nick Boing, a rescued ram who lives with a family near Cardiff in Wales.

David Palmer took the 22-stone sheep home three years ago after finding him as a new-born lamb that had been abandoned in the grass.

Since then, he's tried to settle Nick back into farm life, but it seems he prefers his home comforts, like watching TV...

And going for trips in the car. Let's hope he's got his sheep-belt on!

Now he's got so big, Nick's got his own bungalow in the family's back garden, but he still likes to spend time with them in their living room.

"He's part of the family, said Mr Palmer. "He comes in every evening, head-butts the cushions off the settee and watches TV. If the biscuit barrel is out he'll butt it on the floor because he knows the lid will come off."

The rescued ram is also a regular visitor at local schools and is a big hit with the neighbours.

Some even let him into their gardens to snack on the grass.
