On 8 January 2010 a blind donkey was brought to Kate in Gondar. The female donkey had been abandoned on the edge of the city. Mari, who works for Kate, had spotted the donkey and kept an eye on her for a week or so, to see if there was an owner. After she was sure that the donkey was indeed abandoned, she brought her to Kate.

Kate called the donkey Gedelitu, after a pretty blind girl she helped. The girl now attends a school for the blind near Gondar.

Gedelitu the donkey will be moved to Dib Bahir to join Kate's other rescued donkeys at Sebkana Farm. She can look forward to a long and happy life with Kate.

To support Kate's work with donkeys and other needy animals, please make a donation. For instructions, see the GIVE section.

UPDATE 31 JAN 2010: Gedelitu was safely moved to Dib Bahir on 15 January 2010. We think she is pregnant!
