Christmas Adoption Orders
If you’d like to order an adoption pack from Santa as a Christmas gift, you can add a Christmas message and we will make the start date of your adoption Christmas Day.
Please note the last day for posting adoption packs in time for Christmas is Thursday 18 December 2025. Any orders received after this date will not be posted until our elves return to the office after New Year.
Sound like a good idea? Perhaps it’s something you’ve always fancied doing as a gift to yourself or maybe a present to that someone special. Well, now’s your chance…sponsor a donkey today.
To adopt a donkey just click through to the donkey adoption page and choose if you’d like a bronze, silver or gold adoption. You can adopt a donkey for yourself or for someone special and we’ll also send a special gift message along with your cuddly donkey in your adoption pack.
Your donkey adoption will last 12 months, and 10% of the profits will help raise money for our conservation partners. So you can feel all ‘fuzzy’ inside about your wonderful gift.
Schools and group organisations can also purchase our adoption packages. Please call the office on 01834 812731 to make arrangements.
We’re proud to be home to lots of adorable donkeys including our rare breed Poitou Donkeys, Maisie and Matilda. The sisters are the World’s largest donkey breed and have amazing shaggy coats and huge ears!
They were in high demand for agricultural work in the 18th Century but since the advent of agricultural machinery demand has dropped off and the breed became at risk. Conservation efforts have been made to protect this impressive breed and we’re delighted to have them here as part of our rare breed centre.
As a personalised product, animal adoption packs are non-refundable; non-exchangeable; not for resale.
If there are any problems with your gift pack on arrival, please email photos and we’ll send a replacement.
We only send our adoption packs to UK postal addresses (excluding NI), the cost of postage is included in the price.
Our adoptions last 12 months and are for the species as a whole rather than a specific, named animal.
We sell adoption gift packs, not subscriptions with animal updates. You can read our full terms and conditions here.
