Question for MarilynC, and others

A Facebook friend posted this pic online and said they were two adorable donkeys. There's quite a discussion going if they're donkeys or goats. Everyone is firm in there decision, but there's no unanimous one.
I'm positive they're goats.

Marilyn C, hope I'm right, I have babies!
Comments (12)I think Marilyn has also rehabbed raccoons or at least knows something about them.I seem to remember her talking about them.I could be wrong. Sounds like you already know what you are not suppose to be doing Glenda.My brother use to go "coon" hunting with my uncle when he was a kid.I know,cruel but that was back in the late 50's.One night they found a baby raccoon and DB brought it home and raised it.It was so cute when it was a baby and so much fun to watch but as it got older it got mean.He ended up taking it back to where he originally found it and let it go....See MoreQ for Marilyn_c found baby possum
Comments (3)The mother shakes them off when they still may appear quite small to us....and sometimes, they fall off. It depends on the size that it is. Is it the size of a new born kitten...or is it bigger? The best thing to do, if you know of a rehabber in the area, take it to them. If you want to raise it up a little bigger and then release it in a place that might be safe for animals...has water nearby, shelter...not too many people...then this is how to raise it. Put it in a crate like you would carry a cat to the vet, or other small cage. Put newspapers down on the floor of the cage and give it some rags or an old t shirt to hide under. If it is an open cage...cover it with an old sheet or towel. Give it water and feed it cat chow or dog kibble, if the pieces are small, soaked in water. Stir in some fruit flavored yogurt...not sugar free. You can feed it boiled eggs, chicken necks or pieces of chicken with bones in it...like wings. Do not feed it fruit. This is really not exactly how I would raise it, but by feeding it this way, it is adequate and would give it a chance to get bigger. If the eyes are open and it is walking around, it can eat on it's own. Don't handle it any more than necessary. It won't bite you...or, probably won't. It does not carry distemper or rabies or anything that would affect your pets. Handling them is just very stressful to them. Thank you for wanting to help it....See MoreThought of Marilyn C
Comments (5)It was posted on the Meeting House that Marilyn was fine, her home was in good shape, and her animals ok, other than a little debris here and there. She's prob. still without power....See MoreMarilyn C--Your Husband?
Comments (41)It's okay, I didn't take it as being bossy. Yes, I am fortunate that it is a huge complex with satellite facilities all over the area. He is at the main hospital. Private room....treating him very well. He isn't crazy about the food....they have him on a low sodium diet due to the fluid in his lungs. He looked better last night than I have seen him in ages....See More
