Luke 15:11-32The day has come, the day for which I've wept and prayed; The time to shout- my joy has now arrived; My son's come home- his face on the horizon, and My joy is full because he is alive- Alive! Alive! Alive! Rejoice! Rejoice! My son is coming home again, Rejoice! Rejoice! Go- kill the fatted calf; Rejoice! Rejoice! My son is coming home again, Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice on his behalf.

I think there is no significance in the killing of the fatted calf there was a custom in those days that there was always a calf fattening ready for festive occasions. Possibly there is some allusion to calves as a sin/peace offering and the death of Jesus
Prodigal son
The father in this Parable missed his younger son very much and when the son came home the father was over joyed and he called for a robe and a ring and then the fatted calf. The fatted calf was reserved for special times, like a sacrifice or a great feast celebration and the return of his son call for great celebration. The overall theme of this story is the joy of God, and the celebrations that occur in heaven when a sinner comes to God and repents and is given salvation.
