Boxing day a day late.

Hi there, Mahoney here and our Mom forgot that yesterday was boxing day. Just how could she?? We love boxes.
So happy Boxing day a day late.
************************
Have a great day.
********************
Our donkey Joe, got hurt last night and we have the vet coming to see him right now. He got tangled up in some fence and is cut up in many places and needs stitches.  Any prayers that you can spare would be good. 
UPDATE JOE
Joe is in terrible shape. This picture just shows part of it. He has scratched his eyeball, so he may lose his eyesight in his right eye. He has a lot of other really bad cuts which hopefully will heal since we couldn't sew him up since there really isn't any way to hold him still since there are some really bad ones on his face. And it all hurts him so much that he doesn't want any one to touch him. He wasn't attacked by the coyotes, but Joe was probably trying to chase the coyotes away from the fence and just got wrapped up in the wire. We did sedate him so the vet could check out all the cuts and that took 30 minutes since there isn't any way to hold him still. 
Thanks soooooooooooo much for all the purrs and prayers.
