The Blue Donkey Sanctuary

Picture

       Situated in a small rural area called Ofcolaco, Limpopo Province, South Africa

The Humble donkey... they are so close to our hearts. They are gentle and kind creatures that love a bit of horseplay when they are happy.
We rescue donkeys in our area that are in bad health and are victims of abuse.
We started with one donkey: *Nelly.. and today we have 2O rescued donkeys!
We have about 20 rescued and adopted dogs and
We also rescue all types of other creatures- fury, feathered, big and small.
We have rescued Donkeys, a Horse, Pigs, Dogs, Cats, Parrots, and even Fish.


ALL THESE ANIMALS HAVE A FOREVER HOME WITH US. WE DO NOT HAVE KENNELS FOR THE DOGS, THEY ALL LIVE WITH US AT HOME. SO DO THE CATS. THE PIGS AND HORSE SHILOH AND PONY DASHI HAVE A HOME JUST OUTSIDE OUR KITCHEN IN A LARGE PENN. AND THE DONKEYS ROAM FREE ON THE FARM.
We try to create a loving home for all these amazing and deserving animals that society has forgotten...



*Our Sweet Nelly Donkey sadly passed away 8 April 2017 of old age... We are so honored to have had the opportunity to give her a safe, pain free home in her old age...
your memory inspires us daily old Girl...

Come Journey into our Crazy HAPPY life!

We are jolly Vegans that share our life with a ridiculous amount of animals that we have rescued or saved in some way over the past 10 or more Years.

Why do we do what we do?

Making a difference. Every day that we can look into one of our animals beautiful eyes, is a day that we have made a difference.
We cannot save EVERYONE, but EVERY ONE animal that we have helped makes everyday worth while.
Respect for all living things and Nature, and have fun doing your part... 
Live, love, cry and laugh... a lot!When you open your heart to rescue, you see many many sad and horrible things, It sometimes shakes your trust in mankind.. Our fellow man do so many terrible things to animal for pleasure? How can anyone find pleasure in Hunting a defenseless animal, or abusing an animal just because they can. . Sometimes I want to yell out: "WHAT'S WRONG WITH US AS A SPECIES ! HOW DID WE BECOME SO CRUEL!!" Sometimes it feels like we are a small voice in a very big world that just don't care. Some days the Sadness feels unbearable... Is the sadness worth it? The answer is yes!!! Every time we see a donkey run and play, every time our pack of 20 odd dogs run to greet you and give you kisses we are reminded that it is TOTALLY worth it! These animals are kind and funny and loving and they make us roar with laughter daily!!
