The sun has finally returned to central Washington! Today was gorgeous, with blue skies, temperatures in the high 40s, and lots of glorious sun. The beautiful weather has put all of us, human and chimpanzee, in great moods. The chimps spent much of the day playing, swinging, and laughing outside in their (very nearly completed) greenhouse.

LUSH view
LUSH – Fresh Handmade Cosmetics – is currently featuring Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest as one of their Charity Pot partners. This means that our information appears on the lid of some of the charity pots sold in their retail stores and through their online store.
Thanks to LUSH’s support, we will be replacing two caged windows with chimpanzee-proof glass.
We will do this at the same time as the installation of the window paid for by blog readers Anna K., Denice, Jill K., Julie H., Gayle B., Theresa, Jeani, Candy, Kathy B., Leslie S., Sue and Jack, Stephanie P., Steph and Kurt, Donna A. and Barb in Ohio (big thanks to Anna for initiating the blog fundraising drive for the window).
So the chimps will have three new windows to look out of from the playroom this summer!!
The Westlake and Bellevue LUSH stores will be having in-store events to introduce their customers to the sanctuary on Sunday, February 28th. Stay tuned for more details. And THANK YOU LUSH!
