Amanda Cassidy choose Nariz, one of our very friendly females, to adopt. Nariz lost her baby who was hit by a car in 2008. She kept crying about her baby. Neighbors felt so sorry for her that they called us. It was a piece of cake to lure her into a garden. What we didn't know at the time that she was pregnant with Cookie, who was born September 2008
The Cleary Family from New Hampshire adopted Santa, one of our 130+ donkeys. They visited us while vacationing on Aruba.

On her 50th birthday Desiree Emerencia and her husband Guy Peyronnon came to adopt Thistle as her birthday gift! They were very happy to be back at the sanctuary. Both have been volunteers in the past. Desiree however is allergic to the hay and cannot be with the donkeys for a very long time.

Harry and Persis like the idea of people volunteering. So they love to support organizations like ours. Harry's grandfather was a cavalier during WW I and had a lot of horses and even donkeys. Harry loved to play with them and had one favorite donkey. His name was Kennedy. The memories come back when he visits Mocca and his friends at the Donkey Sanctuary in Aruba.....

Melissa and Chula bonded the moment they met each other. Chula is one of our very friendly younger donkeys. She was born November 5, 2012. Her mom Coco came in pregnant a year before....
