Deppo Posted 22 May, 2011 Share Posted 22 May, 2011 I think I'd like to adopt an African baby. Or a Chinese one. I haven't decided yet. Which one is more likely to stay in fashion longer? I gave my niece an adopt a penguin box for a birthday once. I've no idea what it entailed. I'll ask her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge too far Posted 22 May, 2011 Share Posted 22 May, 2011 We gave a couple an adopted monkey for a wedding present. We didn't get a thankyou letter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 22 May, 2011 Share Posted 22 May, 2011 I bough a Red Panda adoption from Paignton Zoo for my wife for a Valentine's Day present a few years ago. She was absolutely overjoyed, in all honesty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge too far Posted 22 May, 2011 Share Posted 22 May, 2011 I did 'give' my mother a donation to fund a school teacher in an African country for her birthday a few years ago (always a toughie towards the end of her days). She was absolutely delighted and I wish I'd done something like that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonManager Posted 22 May, 2011 Share Posted 22 May, 2011 I have adopted a tree. One can never have too many trees I feel. http://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/en/Pages/default.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted 22 May, 2011 Share Posted 22 May, 2011 My other half is penguin mad and she's adopted many of them. There's one in the Sealife centre in Weymouth i'm being made to drive her to see in July, which I don't mind so much, as there's another in New Zealand, and I can't afford to go there.
