    You guys have me on the floor with “pasta-cam”! Too much!
    Oh, and those unique squeaks that started before the pasta even hit the table! You sure know how to spoil the guy! Was the outdoor footage from today? It was warm and dry enough for them to get out? I hope so! 😀
    Glad it was a good birthday, Mr. B.!
    (oh-and don’t make jokes about him not being “wise”……..after all, every time the ladies mix it up, where’s Burrito? Up high, and out of the middle of it! I’d say that’s pretty wise!)

      Hi Linda – Yes, it was beautiful today and Burrito went on a couple walks with Jamie.

    I’m with Linda, the Pasta Cam was hysterical! Burrito always gets to me when he covers his eyes with his hands, who can resist that move?! And his grunts and squeaks were birthday worthy. What a fun celebration, anticipation so worth it. I hope Negra got a pasta bowl, she looked as if she was looking but I couldn’t see if she found one.

    Happy 36th Birthday Burrito! May you be forever healthy and forever young at heart. Thank you for the joy you bring into my life. I adore you. XOXO

      It looked to me as though she were hoping for the low-hanging fruit (i.e, on the ground, don’t make me climb for it), but Burrito got all of those. Lol, the little guy eats like a dude in prison, as though he’s aware that whatever isn’t in his hands would be up for grabs! He looked quite happy balancing all three of them!
      But yes, I hope Neggie got some, too. If she loves bread, I’m guessing she also likes her some pasta!

        Can’t say I’ve seen a dude in prison chowing down, but you made me laugh!

    Oh the sights and sounds of this Burrito Birthday Bash! Love it. I love Burrito holding three of the pasta trays. My kind of guy. The pasta cam is too funny. It looks like Burrito really enjoyed his special day. Thank you for giving him and all of them so much joy. They deserve that each and every day to come….Happy Birthday dear Burrito???

    The only thing missing was a little bit o’ Foxie, though I think I heard her before dinner was served, right about where Annie is poking out one of Neggie’s eyes, lol

    Two years ago, I happened upon the CSNW website by accident. I saw a Youtube video of Burrito
    engaged in a tug-of-war game with one of his human caretakers. As I didn’t know at the time that
    chimpanzees can laugh, I was surprised that Burrito sounded like he was laughing (indeed he was). In any event,
    I was absolutely smitten with him, and soon with his neighbors on Young’s Hill. I wish the irrepressible Mr. B a very happy birthday and a happy and healthy new year of life.
