A sad donkey named Eeyore is doing much better after getting a new home on Vancouver Island in Canada. He lived alone his whole life in someone’s backyard, and wasn’t great with other animals. A sanctuary called Home for Hooves took him in when his owner passed away. And the woman who runs it wanted to give him something to do, so she tossed a big YOGA BALL in his pen. He played with it constantly until it popped. But then people on social media started sending more and more yoga balls. He ended up with about 40. He still plays with them but doesn’t need them as much anymore, because he finally bonded with three other rescue donkeys she brought in. She says it’s nice to see him finally have a family. She also renamed him Earl, because “Eeyore” just seemed too depressing.
