Igor- AKA Arsehole

After rescuing Donkey we had a new love for this animal, he was so friendly, and calm, and was never any trouble at all. So, when a friend contacted me and said that someone was looking for a home for their donkey, we agreed. The donkey was called Igor, and he had been used as a companion for a horse, the horse was going into livery, so Igor needed a new home.

The people wanted a home for Igor that he could just be with other horses, not used for anything, just live out his days. Igor is younger than Donkey, but we presumed he would be lovely, and they would be great friends.... oh how wrong were we!

Igor arrived, and he was so similar to Donkey we thought it would be a perfect match. Very quickly we discovered Igor had a sneaky side, and he loved escaping, he can get out of anything. This was amusing for the first 20 times, and then it got tedious, and pretty soon, he was christened Igor the Arsehole. 

The problem comes is when Igor lets himself out, he then tends to let everything else out, which means I have horses causing chaos, or even worse, sheep on the rampage. Igor, has this way of causing mayhem, and then calmly heading for the feed area, and hiding with his head in a bucket. So, all you can hear is "where is that fucking donkey now" 


Igor has smashed fences, destroyed gates, eaten many bags of feed, he has let out the sheep causing chaos, destroyed the ponds, and stamped on baby chicks. Igor is like a naughty teenager pushing every button and ensuring that he gets screamed at every day for something he has done. However, he is part of the family, and is here to stay.... until I can work out how to make donkey burgers!
