I WAS saddened to read that Molly, Judy and Peggy, the Nafferton pet donkeys owned by David and Joan Stead, were be sold off (Evening Press, May 22). Would it not be more kind to ask the Donkey Sanctuary to collect them?
They would be treated with all the love and expert care they need. If fit, they might give rides to handicapped children at the Elisabeth Svendsen Trust for Children and Donkeys.
The children and the donkeys enjoy this immensely.
They are safe under the supervision of trained staff. Please, David and Joan Stead, let kindness prevail and contact the Donkey Sanctuary, Sidmouth, Devon, EX10 ONU, tel 01395 578222 to rescue your donkeys.
