Donkey Sanctuary holding one of their Super lunches

This Sunday and Monday 25th and 26th November, we are holding an Open House with a special lunch menu.
Please come along for 12.30, bring some friends and help us raise funds for this very worthy cause. Each week we receive calls to help a poor donkey, either malnourished, lonely or ill treated, but our funds are already spent on keeping our 27 donkeys fit and healthy.  many of the donkeys who live here have come
direct from the butchers yard where they have missed death by only a few days !
During the recent winds we exprienced we lost a lot of fence stakes as some were 12 years old, so we have had to renew this fencing.  We are buying hay weekly to feed our 27 donkeys.  We have just called in the vet to geld a donkey to make him more friendly to his friends as he was becoming out of control with too many ladies around him !, all big vets bills which include our annual vaccinations against equine flu and tetanus, worming etc.  Yesterday we had a visit from our bare foot trimmer who will be returning in a few weeks time to trim back another group of donkeys hooves.   All high ongoing costs. 
You will enjoy a sumptuous meal with as much as you can eat and drink for only 10 euros.  for our regulars you will see a small increase but this is to cover the ever increasing food costs. 
Please reserve your place so we know how many people to cater for.  Email us or phone to leave a message on 05 63 94 38 47 to let us know youre coming.
Come along aswell tomorrow, Friday 23rd, 11 to 3 to La Sirene in Montaigu de Quercy for a sale of lovely goods from many different suppliers, just in time for  Christmas.
 Thank you for all the support you give us.
