We purchase our hay in the Netherlands through Louis Venhorst Fourage from Megchelen. They also want to help us during these hard times by adopting Mr Bean one of our very friendly donkeys. He used to live on the east side of the Island, in Butucu. He just walked in the house from people who lived there. That was an easy catch!
GLE Caribbean line is the Dutch company that transports the hay and the pellets for us from the Netherlands to Aruba. They adopted Pepsi, one of our very friendly donkeys who was hit by a car and broke his hind leg. that was way back in 2010. He has no problems walking or running, doesn't even limp.
Johnny Markwith has lost his arm in a car accident, he is adopting Kamino because he also lost his right arm in a car accident. Johnny says they are true brothers.
Jaimy, Misha, Bojoura & Sonny Gütlich come and visit the donkeys on a regular basis. They like to contribute to our cause and love what we are doing. Santa caught their eye. He is limping due to a broken leg and a sweetheart for a lot of our guests.
Henry, Ben and Molly Durkee were supposed to come to Aruba this summer to visit their aunt Deborah Dintelman. Instead of visiting us now, they have to visit their adoption donkey Diva next year. We made a picture with the flat family.
