I picked up the mail today and there was a lovely treat for me; a beautiful tile from our dearest OTF with a Donkey (imagine that!!) painted on it and under it the words, "My excellence confuses you". :teehee:

PERFECT OTF! Thank you so much for being so thoughtful. The wee squid-o has been missing Brody bunches lately. SHe thought it wa sda-bomb too. :hug: :hug: :hug:

You know that good donkey karma goes a long way. :yes:

Wow, that got there quickly (and I sent it cheap seats too)! I thought you might like something on which to rest your :martini: .

And that would be none other than Sheaffer, a wonderful mini-donk from Canada. If you ever get the urge to read something wonderful, you can go to his blog:

The cast of characters on the Sheaffer blog is wonderful. Sheaffer, of course, is a mini, about 13-14 yrs old (young for a donkey). Jack is an OLD donkey from a nearby rescue, so he has a blankie, and he gets special meals (very few teeth left in his sweet old head). Then there's Doc and Molly, two horses (Molly, the "floozie," is away in training at the moment). A new rescue cat (Sally) just arrived. TJ, the mini mule, is no longer there. He was quite tiny, had been very badly abused, and created lots of amusing havoc until he started inflicting some wounds on Sheaffer. So TJ is at the donkey rescue where, I believe, he has adjusted somewhat better, under the supervision of some larger donkeys who don't put up with his nonsense. If you scroll back, you'll see pictures of little TJ, the terror!

The comments from regular readers are also wonderful; after a while, you get to "know" everyone. A day without reading Sheaffer is not complete. :)

It is a wonderful blog indeed - thanks so much. TJ is adorable in his pictures. Glad to hear he's doing well.

Do you know where they are based OTF? There's a donkey rescue not too far from us and I'm wondering if it's connected?

she certainly is a lovely writer!

There are two in Ontario, the Donkey Sanctuary of Canada, run by Sandra Pady:
