Jane adopted Cranberry for her dad Jimmy Lyttle. He celebrates his 85th birthday on the 19th of August. This is adoption is a surprise for him. Cranberry came in last year and is pregnant with another baby. When she was brought in with an injured leg, she had little Pumpkin walking with her.

Paula and Ted Fedor support us for many years. Often they choose another donkey to adopt. This time it is Simba, the movie star. He had a significant part in a Swedish comedy. We had to bring him all over the island. He was acting very naturally.

The Woelkers family enjoys coming here every year and wanted to adopt a donkey. Kroket reminds them of their dog who passed away last December. Like Kroket he was always wining for food.

Gabriel & Jonathan adopted Mon Petit because he is very polite. Mon Petit was found without his mom in Cashero, a neighborhood in Aruba, in November 2004. He was only 1 or 2 days old. So he was bottle fed.



Barbara and Jim Nemecek bring apples and carrots every time they visit us. Each year they adopt a different donkey. This year they like Gypsy, they have a cat with the same name. Easy to remember!
