    Misssssyyyy!
    IIRC, she also proved that no steel water bottle is a match for her!

    Diana linked me to the hierarchy study that was done on the 7, and Missy is groomin’ her way around the world! “Groom is in the heeaaarrrrt, groom is in the heeaaarrrt…”

    Again, I’ve not been here as long as the others, so it might be off….but in the videos, I don’t seem to remember Missy vocalizing much. Is she the silent type?

      Hi Linda!
      She vocalizes along with the rest, and is especially forceful when she threat barks at caregivers 😉

        Missy?! Really!? I was going to say, “They still threat bark at caregivers?!” and then thought, “yeah, but Jamie…” How often do they do that? Don’t they know the routine by now?

    Missy was the first chimp to catch my eye and win me over. Beautiful, small, powerfully athletic, and her friendship with Annie is so touching. Like all girlfriends, their relationship may not always be perfect but the bond runs deep and true. And I will never forget that Missy almost didn’t make it to sanctuary. She is Wonder Woman!

      She’s like a little spark plug!

    Oh, tsk, tsk! How could a profile about the coolest kid on anyone’s block not mention her veterinary profession? Dr. Missy is renown for her specialties in dermatology and (as Annie can attest) podiatry.
