7-UP

7-UP came to the sanctuary in 2010 when the volunteers received a phone call that there was a roaming donkey in the vicinity of the Palo Marga Racetrack.  Catching this donkey proved to be very easy, as she was seriously ill. According to the vet she had anemia and she needed a series of drips. During the entire time that she received extra care, the volunteers also gave her extra vitamins, but nothing seemed to work. However, 7-Up had a surprise: she was around five months pregnant. Unfortunately she lost her baby; normally donkeys have a gestation period of eleven to fourteen months. After her miscarriage, 7-Up got her strength back and now she is as good as new.

Annie

Annie was found in labor of her dead baby at the golf course in San Nicolaas, that's on the south side of the Island. She had a very tough time but survived with the help of our vet and our volunteers. Sweet girl, a little shy and best friends with Truffles and Sir Wildwood.

Big Momma

Comes from Brazil, a neighborhood in San Nicolas. She came in with her year old baby Black Diamond (2012),  who sadly passed away in 2018 on a colic. He was only 6 years old. In 2019 she had a surprise baby, because one of the stallions escaped before he was neutered.  Little Momma didn’t develop a sucking or swallowing reflux. She died within a week. Couldn’t eat. Big Momma is a very sweet and beautiful donkey who is also the mom of Pepsi, who is with us way before Big Momma came to live with us.

Cinnamon

Locked in a garden together with Lugo and Zoja in San Nicolas. That was an easy catch. Although for the donkeys and especially for Cinnamon it was very stress full. He became sick after being neutered. We had to treat him for Hyperlipaemia. We gave him a lot of carrots and apples and the vet had to treat him with IV’s with glucose. He made it and is very fond of the girls Diva and Gypsy. He follows them everywhere.
