| On
August
10 a
new donkey arrived at the Sanctuary. He is a very good looking and
muscular donkey. Diana
Tucci and her friend Wendy
Donenfeld decided to adopt him. As he had just arrived at
the Sanctuary he had not been named yet so Diana decided to name him after
her boyfriend. Her boyfriend's name is Evan.
We are not sure if Diana's boyfriend will appreciate this, but he should
be honored to have such a good looking animal named after him.

The
Delesios (Carolyn and John) from
Pittsburgh
have always believed that donkeys are very special and also most
misunderstood of all animals and therefore abused.
They
visited us on August 9, 2006 and chose Pica
for adoption.
It
is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Pica on Friday,
October 26, 2007. Pica was having his hooves trimmed and apparently
he became scared and jumped up. When he landed he broke his
front right leg (the one that had been broken before). The vet was
called and came to the Sanctuary. Unfortunately there was nothing
he could do as the bone was through the skin and it was his bad leg
so he was put down.

 Janet
McLaughlin and Tom
Petrocel from
Massachusetts
are real animal lovers. They have adopted a dog in the States.
They found out about the Sanctuary on the internet and came to visit us.
Janet decided to adopt Surfi
and Tom chose Negrita.
They will come visit us again on their next trip to
Aruba
. |

A
couple from Aruba (?) had adopted Bally
in the past.
Unfortunately
Bally is no longer with us so they decided to adopt Spot, one of our newer
residents

Caitlyn
Hopkins and Kris Rochelle
are from
Illinois
.
Caitlyn's
mother comes to the Sanctuary everytime she is in
Aruba
. Caitlyn and Kris fell in love with Kromoor
also known as Crooked Ear. Kromoor followed Caitlyn everywhere so
she had to adopt him for all his loyalty to her.
we are waiting for a picture
with Kris and Kromoor, in the meanwhile we show Kromoor's art! |

CaribEx
(prints the roadmap of Aruba for Avis Car Rental)
has
decided to support a treasure of
Aruba
by adopting one of our donkeys. Ban
Ban was the lucky one chosen. Ban Ban is one of the
original donkeys at the Sanctuary and one of the few that children can
ride. If Avis every runs out of cars to rent they can come talk to
Ban Ban.

On August
13th, Monique van der Hoek paid a visit to the Sanctuary. Monique is
from Aruba. She fell in love with Pica because he is a survivor.
Pica is our donkey who survived being hit by a car years ago and has two
deformed legs. He is a very sweet donkey.
Monique
will come back to make a picture with Pica.

Jeremy,
Melony and Elisabeth Lobbrecht came to the
Sanctuary with their family on Sunday, October 1, 2006. Jeremy
has a school project. In order for him to get
points for his school grade he must either make a speech or write an essay
about a subject, the donkeys. The three children learned a lot about
the donkeys by helping to feed them and to clean up the sanctuary.
They had so much fun they decided to also adopt a donkey. They
chose Negrita one of the
younger donkeys.
October 2, 2006 - 2007

of the spine but is a very friendly donkey and hangs out with Lucky.
