Cedar
Rescued July 7, 2025
Cedar came to Wild Pines with her daughter, Sky, after a local farm “sanctuary” closed down and several rescues stepped in to help find safe placements for the animals in their care. Much of Cedar’s earlier history is unclear, but we know she became pregnant following one of many pregnancies described as “unplanned” at the sanctuary, where accidental breeding had become an ongoing problem. Cedar safely gave birth to Sky, and when the sanctuary eventually closed, we knew keeping the two of them together was important. They arrived at Wild Pines side by side and have remained close ever since.
Cedar is an incredibly social and loving donkey who genuinely enjoys being around others. She seeks out attention, loves spending time with her people, and is happiest with good company nearby. Of course, Sky is still one of her favorite companions, but Cedar has a warmth and personality that are entirely her own. After so much uncertainty in her past, her life now gets to be wonderfully simple. She has friendship, love, plenty of attention, and her daughter by her side, with the comfort of knowing she is finally home.
