Paddington & Penny

Little Paddington was rescued, along with his friend Penny, from an uncertain fate at a live animal market in December 2017. Their rescue was a traumatic one - as they were being transported to safety, our horse lorry broke down and they had to be swapped into a trailer by the side of a busy road on a dark, stormy night. They were very frightened - likely torn from their mothers by a dealer.  Paddington was just 7 weeks old - still in desperate need of his Mum for suckling and comfort... 
 
Paddington was a very sick baby and collapsed on arrival. He was underweight, undernourished, with a serious eye infection and required treatment for lice and rain-scald due to the neglect he had suffered. Both donkeys needed weeks of specialist care and veterinary attention, but, with lots of tender loving care, their health slowly improved as they settled in to their new life at our sanctuary.

Penny is still timid, due to the unknown traumas she has suffered in the past, but we are slowly gaining her trust. Paddington has transformed into a very friendly, affectionate little chap, who loves cuddles and attention!
