7-UP

7-UP came to the sanctuary in 2010 when the volunteers received a phone call that there was a roaming donkey in the vicinity of the Palo Marga Racetrack. Catching this donkey proved to be very easy, as she was seriously ill. According to the vet she had anemia and she needed a series of drips. During the entire time that she received extra care, the volunteers also gave her extra vitamins, but nothing seemed to work. However, 7-Up had a surprise: she was around five months pregnant. Unfortunately she lost her baby; normally donkeys have a gestation period of eleven to fourteen months. After her miscarriage, 7-Up got her strength back and now she is as good as new.
