Hello Brenda -- Thanks for the info and link. I've been through a similar research process. Donkeys can be imported to the US, but there are so many uncertainties, that I'd have to have thousands of "in-case" dollars. So I'm removing the dear donkeys from the gofundme project. That fund and other fundraising have now brought in more than 50% of the ferrets' dogs' and cats' transportation costs. I'm working on a couple of local options for the donkeys' futures. All are flawed, but (but?) my donkey vet tells me to remember that they've had years of happiness in the middles of their lives that they'd never have had without me. I'll let you know what I decide in the end. Meanwhile I am now focusing on the problem of transporting Jonas. Most likely he has insulinoma. [Posted in FML 7699]
