Anti-black racism has no place in this world, including here on Goatlings.com. We mourn the loss of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade, and all who came before them.
In solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement, and Black lives around the country, Goatlings.com is hosting a fundraiser to raise money for the NAACP. A short description from the organization:
“The mission of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) is to secure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights in order to eliminate race-based discrimination and ensure the health and well-being of all persons.”
This fundraiser will run from June 13th to July 14th, 2020. At the end of the fundraising period, Goatlings.com will send all donated funds to the NAACP.
Additionally, by donating, members will receive in game items from the brand new Coffee Box which includes one of the following:






Cinnamon Latte (with speed stat upgrade), Justice AD, Justice Locs, Coffee Shop Counter, Coffee Shop Background,
[Click HERE to view the fundraiser and donate!]
If you are unable to donate at this time but are looking for ways to help, we encourage you to refer to the Black Lives Matter Carrd website.
We are also excited to share that we intend to make this an annual fundraiser. Every year in June, Justice and the Coffee Box will return, and all funds raised will be donated to a Black-led organization.
Thank you for your time and contributions.

Welcome to Goatling Spotlight! A mini event where we get to show off your favorite Goatlings! Each week a new Goatling will be featured in the News and the owner will receive a shiny Spotlight Trophy to display on their pets page or in their collection. This week is all about CranberryLemonade!
![]() | Name: CranberryLemonade Appearance Doll: Pink Lemonade AD Guardian: @AngelOShadows Give Love! Bio: A very happy and peppy goat, she forgot most of her past. Her happy charade almost seems like a total fraud when her past is brought up, but she attempts to keep it going. Whenever someone buys her lemonade she gets incredibly happy, and puts the money away into a jar so she may save it and hopefully find out who she once was with the funds provided. She loves getting flowers as well as Sugar Stars! |
Favorite Treasure
Essence Of Sweet Pea | Flav Pink Drink | Jar Of Lemonade

Greetings Battlings!
We’re excited to announce that we will be bringing back the Speed stat, which will affect the dodge-rate of your battling Goatlings in the upcoming battle update. As some of you may know, book items can be used to raise a Goatling’s intelligence stat. Similarly, the upcoming caffeinated drinks will raise their speed!
A new Coffee Shop will be opened in the Shopping District, and members will be able to purchase drinks with Sugar Stars. We intend to start with a stock of about 50 new drinks, and would like to invite members to submit their original drink designs through the end of June!
CLICK HERE to enter! 
The shop's main focus will be on coffee, however other caffeinated drinks such as tea, soda, and energy drinks are welcome as well. Coffee Shop drinks will be stamped in the corner with a symbol to distinguish them from regular food drinks on the site. Other drinks on the site will not be moved to the Coffee Shop or given the speed stat; the Coffee Shop will be stocked with all new items!
Requests are for drinks designs only as our Barista has already been selected! They will be officially revealed soon in a new and very important annual event!
Thank you!

The Token Game is a seasonal event where members trade Goat Tokens for exclusive goodies. Goat Tokens are special coins members can find around the site all year long. They are available in the Diamond Dust shop, from Battle Center Baddys, Random Events, Daily Gachapon (Arcade game), and Gone Fishin (Arcade game). Sometimes they are also given to members as prizes during events and contests.
The Token Game changes with each season (4 games for 4 seasons). Each season a new Guardian will arrive and exchange Goat Tokens for their treasure. The treasure will not retire but will only be available during the appropriate season. For example, the Summer Token game is only open in the Summer. However, MORE treasure will be added each year (new items will have a higher drop rate)! Goat Tokens can be used in every season.
Summer Token Game Schedule = June, July, August
--- --- ---
The Summer Token game is now open! Let's give a quick shout out and thank you to the talented members who submitted their designs this season! What new items do you want to collect the most?
