Chula is looking for friends and family members
We would like to introduce Chula to you, one of the donkeys that has found a home at the Aruban Donkey Sanctuary. She is still a baby, born at the end of 2012. Her mother Coco came to live at the sanctuary early in 2012; she appeared to be pregnant after ten months. Our volunteers had noticed her rounded form, but they never suspected a pregnancy. Everyone was overjoyed when a cute little donkey was the result: Chula looks adorable with her dark brown fur and white legs. She also has white circles around her eyes. She is a cuddly donkey, who loves attention and petting. So beware: before you know it, she’s jumping on your lap!
This beautiful donkey has been provided with a chip, just like all the other donkeys. On the chip is information about the donkey and its medical history. The donkeys at the sanctuary have a lot of friends with whom they can play all day long. And they love living there: they are well-cared for, they are fed and watered and when they are sick the vet is called. Yes, they are expensive customers for the sanctuary.
The volunteers are trying to cover the various costs with all kinds of activities and the sale of great donkey memorabilia in the shop. Fortunately, there are also visitors who wish to adopt a donkey, who buy something at the donkey shop or who make a donation. Thus they help support us. Everyone is welcome to visit the sanctuary, which has opening hours from 9 am until 4 pm and in the weekend from 10 am until 3. Entry is free of charge and one can enjoy a soft drink, a cup of coffee or a refreshing ice cream.
The volunteers of the sanctuary are hoping that somebody will adopt this friendly, lovely donkey. Of course the donkey will keep on living at the sanctuary; you only need to pay AWG. 30,-- [$16.76 USD] per month for the donkey’s keep. With this amount you help support the sanctuary as well as your own donkey. And you will receive a beautiful certificate and a super T-shirt and your name and photo will be posted on our website. So please call the sanctuary at 593-2933; you can also register via the website www.arubandonkey.org or donate money on bank account number 40.03.025 at the Aruba Bank! Just do it! Would you like to follow the donkeys on Facebook: surf to Donkey Sanctuary Aruba.
