When the sun began to lower in the sky and shift away from the greenhouse this afternoon I found Foxie and her doll sleepily stretched out in the heat. In classic Foxie style, she stuck her toes out for a tickle to greet me as I sat beside her. And for just awhile, we got to spend a quintessential summer day lingering together, two friends, in silence and the shade found on a hot summer day with a warm breeze.

You, Katelyn, have the best friends. And you, Foxie (and Jamie, Missy, Annie, Burrito, Jody and Negra!), have the best friends too! Thank you for the amazing photos of beautiful Foxie.

July 18, 2018 at 4:44 pmdo you tickle her feet? With a feather from a local bird? Are they generally ticklish?
Katelyn says
July 18, 2018 at 5:32 pmHi Bill, Foxie likes to tickle the back of our hands (we keep fingers tucked in for safety) with her toes or sometimes we’ll give the bottoms a knuckle rub. Some of the chimps do appear ticklish if we’re using a toy to tickle ribs, neck, ears…similar to us. 🙂
