Pat and Art Weiss come to Aruba every year and always come to the Sanctuary to see their adoptive son Kromoor. They have been doing this since 2004. Not only are they loyal adoptive parents, they also help out when they visit and we are short of volunteers.
Chris and Barbara came instead of their parents to make sure the adoption is to be continued. Thank you so much!
Yesterday Pat Weiss, her son Chris and daughter in law Barbara and granddaughter came to visit Crooked Ear, their long time adoption donkey. It was so nice to see how they interact with Crooky.....
Presley Paris, the son of Eddy and Lisette Paris, is enjoying a ride on Ban Ban. The Paris family allow us to use their property for the Sanctuary and they have also adopted a donkey from the beginning of the sanctuary. The Vice President of the Foundation has written a book called "Kosh Kosh, the Green Donkey From Aruba". To show the Foundation's gratitude for all the Paris family has done for us, the first copy of the book was presented to Presley Paris on Animal Day 2006. Again Thank You Paris Family.
Once bitten by the bug of owing donkeys, they could not resist an Aruban donkey: Patricia and David Kennedy from the US are long-standing repeat-guests to the island. Sasha was their choice. Sasha is Sashi’s daughter and mom of Andrew and Jolly Jumper.
This adoption is a continuing story.... Sasha is very happy with her adoption parents.
Marie Cameron from Millbury, MA USA came to the Sanctuary April 6th with her husband Tony. In the summer of 2004 they adopted a very shy cocker spaniel named George. Our donkey, George, is also very shy and was in need of an adoptive parent so Marie decided to adopt him. Our George was born in the sanctuary and his mother is Ginger.
Each year Marie and Tony make an appointment to meet George at Bringamosa (our other sanctuary),George the dog is also still, after a few surgeries, doing okay. Thank you for your ongoing support for so many years…..
