J.W.C. Wierda and M. Bossenbroek from the Netherlands picked Tootsie to adopt. When we picked her up she was already pregnant. They also chose to adopt her unborn baby and the baby's name will be Boefie. We think the baby will be born in two or three months and eagerly await its arrival.
Tecla Koolman got in touch with us when she noticed a donkey walking round with a can around his foot. It took awhile to catch him and get him to the Sanctuary where the vet came to remove the can. He also had an old wound that reopened. Tecla and Marusha decided they had to adopt this ovely donkey and they made a special trip to see him on Family Day.
One of our former Board members, Bauke, is now living in Suriname but we keep him posted on the happenings at the Sanctuary. When he heard about Sparkle he immediately decided to adopt him. Regine, Xavier, Arian and Emil came to take a picture of Sparkle so they could send out a birth announcement.
In October Cindy and David Adams from Schenectady, New York, came to the Sanctuary with their friend Rick Berschwinger. Cindy fell in love with Bono, one of our adorable babies who was born in July. Cindy adopted Bono and would like him to have a middle name. He is now Bono Joe. She plans to be back next October to see how big Bono has
gotten.
