Cassandra Gatsas from New Hampshire always talks with Judy Collins about the donkeys. Cassandra runs a rescue in her hometown and asked Judy to adopt Chocolat in her name. Thank you Cassandra! Hope to meet you one day.
Judy Collins loves animals, she already has taken a Aruban dog home and when she heard about Chippie she decided to adopt him as well. The adoption runs for a very long time now. Thank you Judy for your ongoing support!
Bill and Becky Potterton renewed the adoption of Gerardo. Gerardo is with us for many years. He came in a group of 5 donkeys including his mom Maartje, who passed away last year. Maartje and Gerardo were the lowest in hierarchy. That is the reason why he lives with the elderly donkeys. Otherwise he would never get to eat, always waiting for the other donkeys to finish the food.
Bill & Becky Potterton adopted Gerardo. One of our long time residents. Gerardo came to us back in 1999 so he lives with us for many many years.
Laura and Peter Baecker adopted Negrita. Negrita was born at the sanctuary May 29,2005, so she is almost 20 years old.
Carol Fisher adopted Esmerada before and decided to adopt Santa after she died. Santa is a sweetheart who was hit by a car back in June 2010.
