Do you remember the donkey Eeyore from Winnie-the-Pooh?
The one who would beadorable, yet always so sad and so lonely?
seems as if he has a real-life twin in British Columbia, Canada.
This lonesome donkey named Earl arrived to A Home For Hooves Farm Sanctuary when his longtime owner passed away.
The poor animal was left on his own without a friend for 10 years.
So he was by himself.
So he didnt have space to run and graze and do all the things that donkeys should be doing.
Therefore, Earls loneliness continued, especially because at the time, he was the only donkey there.
And then this ball was just like pure joy for him.
The donkey would chase it, bite and kick it and was having so much fun!
Finally, there waspure joyin the air.
So it just kind of broke your heart.
It was just really sad.
He was just a really, really sad donkey, Singleton recalled the memories.
The sanctuary decided to ask for help on their social media.
Earl is heartbroken this evening!
Earl plays with his ball several times a day and he has spent countless hours chasing after it.
People were just coming and dropping off balls.
He has his friends.
Theyre still sharing a fence line at the moment.
But you know, they sleep at the gate together, they eat together.
And he has friends and hes not by himself.
As Charlie Mackesy once said: What do we do when our hearts hurt?
We wrap them with friendship, shared tears, and time, till they wake hopeful and happy again.
I believe that the happiest days in Earls life have just started!
