When Katori got out of the car at Gut Aiderbichl Henndorf, our hearts broke. It was clear to see that he was in a lot of pain. His fellow sufferer Imala could hardly walk because of the pain. The reason for this was the acute laminitis from which both ponies were suffering. Less than an hour earlier, the two were confiscated because the owner was unable to provide sufficient medical care to alleviate the laminitis. Unfortunately, all help came too late for little Imala, she was too weak and fell asleep forever in the care of Gut Aiderbichl. Katori made it. Even though the disease will stay with him forever, he has rediscovered his zest for life and is enjoying his new freedom among all the ponies at Gut Aiderbichl in Henndorf.
