Goat was placed in the pasture area in underground room, cut in limestone in order to starve it to death and then butcher. The goat soon start to shown as "hungry", but then "hungry" label disappears and goat never dies.
If save game in this state and then load, goat starts to starve again and stops starving after some time.

1)Have an immigrant with his or her own herbivore creature.
2)Assign a creature to some pasture, on the bare stone floor (no herb or fungus!).

Owners feed their pets when they're hungry (if possible), although I didn't know it happened in pastures too. Still, I think this is expected behavior.
Anyway, as far as I know, you can't butcher pets or animals that died on their own. If you need to butcher something, you're better off butchering a stray animal (which won't upset any of your dwarves).
