The other three lambs stayed in the lounge.
The visit took place at Castle View, in Poundbury, near Dorchester, Dorset.
“The sheep were welcomed with open arms,” Donna Peck, whose family owns a farm north of Dorchester, told What’s The Jam.
“The residents loved stroking their soft wool and watching them run around and explore the room.”
Hayley Legg, a team leader at the care home, said: “The remaining three lambs continued entertaining everyone in the lounge with their playful antics.
