Mike Jivanjee, of Oregon, rescued Kyle when her family rejected her as a young gosling and she's been by his side ever since.

“She is my best friend,” Jivanjee told Inside Edition. “She is a celebrity everywhere.”

Kyle is even a star on social media. Her Instagram account has more than 64,000 followers.

Due to recent problems in the hood I'm upgrading the security threat level to blue black. For those that have not read the 2016 handbook it goes like this. If we catch you east of Bryant and south of lakeview and we don't recognize you or you stand out in anyway. We are gonna approach you. If you cannot provide a name of who you know or why u are there, we are going to tax you accordingly. #easycompany #neighborhoodwatch @animals_video #blueblack @brentonolson

Last year Shannon told me to start a social media for Kyle. He told me me that if we could be kind, we might inspire others to do the same. In my head it's never been more than a joke that went too far. Waking up this morning and seeing the love and support inspires us on another level. For rest of the summer we gonna make an effort to be more than just gang members that only take and never give back. We can be better. We will be better. We love you all. #easycompany @animals_video #bekind #spreadlove #teamjordan #teamraja #teamhank

While most days are spent boating around Lake Oswego, the duo likes to head into town once in awhile, when they do they stop traffic and get looks from passersby.
