A Florida couple posted on TikTok that they couldn’t evacuate and leave all their animals during Hurricane Milton and showed the virtual zoo cuddled up with them with their adorable baby donkey Cash cuddled up in their bedroom. The sweet videos touched a chord and soon people from around the world were wishing them luck.
‘These animals are our children,’ wrote Sara Weldon.
Sara Weldon and her husband Rick Bass posted, “We are in the direct path of where this hurricane is supposed to hit. We’re not evacuating. And please, don’t ask me to,” a tearful Weldon said in one video about their hurricane prep.
The couple has “10 donkeys — including Cash the baby donkey that we have raised inside — nine Highland cows, four goats, over a hundred chickens and six dogs,” explained the worried Mom.
Fortunately, the couple and all their animals are safe after the hurricane, though they still lack power and cell phone service.
