The gigantic sheep, named Nick Boing, was rescued as a new-born lamb three-years-ago.

His rescuer, David Palmer, has tried to find Nick some farm-life friends but the ram prefers his home comforts: watching TV and taking trips in the car.

The 53-year-old said Nick had even slept in his bed when he was a lamb but was too big for that now.

"He comes in every evening, head-butts the cushions off the settee and watches TV," he said.

"If the biscuit barrel is out he'll butt it on the floor because he knows the lid will come off."

Mr Palmer, from Cardiff, discovered the baby lamb bleating alone in the grass at the Goldcliff Nature Reserve in Newport, south Wales and took him home.

When Nick refused to bond with flocks of sheep at local farms, he soon became a member of the family.

His owner constructed a luxurious sheep's bungalow in his garden, complete with carpet and windows, but Nick still prefers to spend his time in the family living room.

Mr Palmer doesn't seem to mind the farmyard pong.

"It probably smells in here, but I'm used to it," he said.

"It takes me five hours to shear him with a scissors but I only have to do that once a year.

"He loves being shampooed and will lie on his back with his legs in the air for me to wash him."
