Nancy Bendel and her husband came to visit the donkey sanctuary and met with our last new donkey. Since we ran a Name the Baby Contest for her, they had to wait for their certificate. She is now called; Mrs Tiddles. Thank you for your patience...
Hannah met Apple a.k.a. Chula 2 years ago. She was just a baby. Hannah couldn't stop talking about Apple. She named her Apple because she likes apples very much and she bites a little bit in her fingers.
| Alex and Nicky, Teachers at Askham Bryan College from York (UK) came with Charles, Ryan, Lucy, Charlotte, Kayti and Sam for 2 weeks to Aruba. To work at Contreras Veterinary Services and to work at the Donkey Sanctuary. They cleaned, took care of the donkeys, helped relocate the donkeys from Desiree's home to the new place and assisted with the surgery on Gismo. He had his 2nd testicle still in the belly. Now that is removed and it will be peacefully again at the donkeys.... Thank you for all the work you did, for your beautiful Donkey Weather vane, the adoption of Gismo and the 2 Delft Blue tiles that you bought. Before they came to Aruba they had several fund raisers to be able to do this! Yeah Askham Bryan Students (and teachers) YOU ROCK! |
At first Melisa Richardson was scared to go in between all these donkeys. She came with the Britten family to visit the baby donkey who came in a couple of days before. 7-UP was very much interested in her purse, she didn't want to leave her alone. Melisa thought it was very naughty....and so do we....
The Britten Family were present when Baby's mom was hit by a car in Savaneta. It was in front of their house. They helped catching the baby 2 days later. The baby was also hit a little bit, she was having troubles with her hip(s).
Take Route 4a from the hotels and follow this road for 14 km, pass all the circles/roundabouts until you see a sign for the French Men’s Pass. Make a left turn onto the French Men’s Pass, then 1st left, 2nd right. On that dirt road you will find the Donkey Sanctuary after about 200 meters.
If you have a GPS device, navigate to these coordinates: N 12°48.974’ W 069°96.642’ This will bring you to the entrance of the Donkey Sanctuary.
