Why this gift works

The Screaming Goat is the original desk toy from Running Press's RP Minis line: a 3-inch goat on a tree-stump base that lets out the internet's favorite scream when you press the button, boxed with a 32-page illustrated book of goat facts and trivia. It is the desk toy that turns a bad meeting into a moment, and it has a fan base for a reason.

Perfect for the coworker who needs comic relief, the friend who still quotes screaming goat videos, or any office gift swap ready to lose it. The batteries are included, so it screams straight out of the box. Small money, disproportionate joy.

Who is this gift for?

Great for

  • A coworker who needs comic relief
  • A small gift for someone who quotes screaming goat videos

Think twice if

  • Their workplace is quiet
  • They would find a screaming goat more annoying than funny

The catch

It is a one-gag novelty - very funny, mildly loud, and destined to live on a monitor stand.

Skip for a silent workplace, or anyone who finds a screaming goat more annoying than delightful.
