HALLOWEEN
The Halloween / Jamie’s birthday celebration today is perhaps the biggest party we’ve had to date, and the chimpanzees were food grunting and squeaking like they’d happened upon the most exciting food they had ever seen.
Here are a few photos of the festivities:
Jamie looking through a Halloween gift bag. Thanks for all the great new toys, Robbi and Dick!
Jamie (and really everyone) enjoyed the juice in Halloween cups with Halloween straws. Thanks, Stephanie!
Jody decided to spend her time bobbing for apples in the pool we filled with water:
Burrito went around to all of the food buckets and picked out the pomegranates, squeaking the entire time. Thanks for the donation to buy produce for the party, Tamela!
Jamie opened up all of the pinatas, including this boot pinata (thanks, Felicity!), but she left some nuts behind. Here’s Negra getting what was left behind:
Foxie kept going back to this bag and peering inside, but she left it for someone else to open. Jamie finally did and Foxie got the troll doll that was in the bag:
Felicity’s Lucky Seven Day
In addition to being Halloween and Jamie’s birthday (party!!). Today is Felicity’s Lucky Seven Day. This is the seventh in a series of Sponsor-a-Days honoring Felicity Wood.
As you probably well know from the previous six Felicity Days, for her birthday this year, Felicity asked her loved ones to donate to the sanctuary. Her family and friends responded by honoring her throughout the year. Felicity was so successful in her fundraising that she raised the 2nd highest amount of anyone during our Anniversary Fundraising for the chimp-proof windows.
Today’s day is from Sam and Bailey, two of Felicity’s beloved canine family members (smart dogs!)
Here’s a close-up of one of my favorite photos of Jamie, taken by Sarah in 2009. You may have received a donation thank you card with this photo on the front:
People (or perhaps even dogs) you love would love to give to your chimpanzee friends in your honor.
