Jolanda, Antoinette & Imke Verwej van Voorst visited their family on Aruba and spent a morning at the donkeys. When they came home they decided to adopt one of our very friendly donkeys Chula. Chula means beautiful in Mid American Spanish. And that she is.
Barbara Himes & Maeve Montag adopted Governess because she reminded them of Maeve's dog. The donkey and the dog are both brown!
Corey and Angela Smith adopted Gypsy for their kids Kyle and Gia. Gypsy is with us for a couple of months now and is still recovering from being very very sick! She was constipated and had a liver disease. She stayed at the veterinarian clinic for a week where Ricardo Contreras, our long time vet, took excellent care of her. She still needs to be spoiled with sweet carrots and apples for her liver. We don't mind spoiling her....
Christine Terry and her husband came with lots and lots of apples and carrots. The donkeys LOVED them. Especially Azzy, so they decided to adopt her.
Kristen Thibodeau ordered a Donkey Calendar for 2019 on-line and also adopted a donkey on-line. The only thing we have to send the T-shirt to her by mail and we do not have a picture of her and Rambo together. It helps us though to take care of Rambo and his 130 friends!
Adoptions can also be considered as Christmas Presents!
