Dan and Heather Kennedy from Florida visited the sanctuary and were very enthusiastic about the work we do.  They had a hard time picking a donkey to adopt so decided they would each adopt one donkey for six months.  Heather chose One Eye who is our baby Negrita's mom.  One Eye is a very good mom and also has a son Boem Boem at the sanctuary.  Dan chose Kromoor, also known as Crooked Ear because his ear is crooked.  He was in a fight with another donkey and when then doctor fixed his ear is became crooked.

Gerardo was one of our fostered donkeys.  He was returned to us when the people could no longer take care of him and his friend Maartje. We are very thankful they were returned and not just let out into the wild.  The Horowitz visited the Sanctuary and decided to adopt him as a graduation present for Emily and Sarah. Gerardo is happy to have new parents.

On November 1, Luc Peek (the volunteer who writes the newsletter these days) came with his golf friends to the sanctuary on their Island trip. One of them is Perry Moorman from the Netherlands. A big animal lover. Drinking coffee and filling the adoption papers Perry made a very generous gesture. He adopted a whole herd of donkeys instead of one. Perry will show his wife Heleen in March, when he will be back,  how many donkeys they have adopted.
