There’s not a lot one can do for animals like donkeys in such brutally cold weather as is predicted for Sunday and Monday. One thing is shelter, of course – the forecast calls for 50 mile an hour winds – and the other is grain, which gives sheep and donkey strength and energy. The heated water buckets are an important source of warmth as well. Lulu and Fanny – I call them the “Sweet Sisters” – have been together their whole lives, they share everything, peacefully and graciously.
