Apolo is one of the oldest and most cherished donkeys at the sanctuary. When he grew too old to work, his owner threw him onto the streets and inflicted unthinkable cruelty. PAW rescued him on August 22, 2021 in critical condition — swollen with infection, weak, thirsty, and starving — but his eyes still showed a quiet will to live. Today, thanks to love, care, and time, Apolo enjoys peaceful days surrounded by gentle companions. As a senior, he needs ongoing veterinary care, special senior food, alfalfa, supplements, and daily comfort.
