Goodbye dear friend

It is with great sadness that we announce the loss of Daisy O. At the grand old age of 53, Daisy was one of our oldest donkey residents and was hugely loved by all who knew her from farm staff to the vets and visitors.

A beautiful white donkey, Daisy will be remembered as being a gentle donkey with a real cheeky streak. She would do anything to secure an extra feed, often standing at the gate braying loudly to make sure our farm staff knew she was hungry and wanted her feed.

Spirited right to the end, Daisy loved an adventure and could often be found trying to escape from the yard and into the feed room. Sadly, due to her increasing years, Daisy's health deteriorated quite quickly in January and despite the best efforts of her grooms and the vets, it was time to say goodbye.

Thank you Daisy for your gentleness and joy. You will be greatly missed by all.
