Jeff, Aimie, Ethan, Ahren and Bennett Reistad adopted Igor because they want to give back to the Island. They choose Igor because the others pushed hi away and they felt sorry for him.
Heather Cloud fell for Blackie, who was hit by a car back in 2005. He was the first donkey we did surgery on his broken leg on. It was a long process, but a huge success. Blackie can run, jump and play with the other donkeys.
The adoption of Sgt Pepper is a present made by Kate Burge for Pamela Reid. What a lovely gesture! Sgt Pepper came all the way from Curacao and was allowed to start a new blood line. Unfortunately he wasn't fertile,so he had a very nice year before we found out: NO babies.
Pamela Jennings says: "Love it here. Wonderful facility. Crooked Ear just seemed to "speak" to me! Well that is a good reason to adopt him!
Kate Burge from Australia adopted Gypsy. She saw her in the stables and wants to know how she gets on over the next 12 months! For now she is still recovering from being very very sick last August. It will take time. We are not in a hurry. Let her take all the time she needs.
