Eeyore, the donkey, is a staple of many childhood memories. The depressed donkey lived under a stick tent in the 100 Acre Wood in the Winnie the Pooh stories and, obviously, loved Christopher Robin. Eeyore is quite the mood for many of us (especially during a rough Monday morning), but he never fails to bring a smile to your face when you see him moping about.

Martin Stanton decided he was going out for a walk one day, bringing along his camera with him. Walks are incredible things, resulting in little adventures you never expect. On this particular walk, Martin was about to make a friend he never anticipated!

On that fateful walk Martin took, he ended up meeting what would soon become a good friend. Harriet is a donkey that lived close to Martin’s house. While on the walk, Martin stumbled across where Harriet lived and immediately knew that he wanted to bring her a gift soon!

Martin came back the next day bearing gifts.

As anyone knows, you have to buy the trust of an animal before you ever get close to it! That purchase usually involves food of some type, and this time around, Martin was ready. Going out for his second walk in two days, Martin went to Harriet with her favorite snack – carrots!

“I’m an animal lover,” Stanton told The Dodo. “I saw her, so the next day I brought her carrots.”

With a relationship founded on carrots, the two of them became fast friends.

Whenever Martin would walk, he would always make sure to stop by and deliver some delicious carrots to Harriet. As time went on, Martin was able to meet Harriet’s owners! According to him, they are lovely people who know they have a special donkey on their hands! They dote on her just as much as he does!

“Oh, she’s so spoilt. I’ve been visiting her for over a year now and I always bring her treats!”

With so many people loving on her, Harriet has a wonderful life. Even more than that, she started expressing her thanks in a very special way! Harriet can do more than just eat carrots, she can sing!

Whenever she sees Martin coming with treats, she lets her golden pipes go free!

While donkeys aren’t really known for their singing voices, Harriet is special. Most donkeys bray in a harsh fashion. That won’t do for Harriet, however. She brays in a way that sounds like she has had professional opera training!

While this donkey may not really be destined for the opera, we can’t help but love her anyway. The special relationship between the two of them is rarely seen. Now, Harriet has to earn her carrots whenever Martin comes to visit! All it is going to cost her is a show.
