Mirjam Silfhout & Michel Dijkman came to Aruba from the Netherlands and paid a visit to the Sanctuary. Mirjam fell in love with Cookie as she bonded immediately with Mirjam. They decided to adopt her. They also support horses and donkeys worldwide through other organizations as well. Cookie was smart to cuddle with Mirjam.

Thanks to our sponsors!
