Dear supporter and friend of the sanctuary, Tobin, is sponsoring a day of sanctuary in honor of beautiful Jody and the special friendship she and Foxie share. Reading Tobin’s beautiful message about Jody and Foxie makes my heart so happy:
“A few years ago there was a blog post entitled “The Beauty of Jody.” Several supporters of the sanctuary commented not only on Jody’s distinctively expressive face but, moreover, on the essence of her personality. That beauty has shown forth in her devotion to her friend Foxie. Her concern for Foxie’s health and well-being, and her companionship to Foxie during her recovery demonstrates the love, home and hope which this sanctuary offers. Thus, I wish to sponsor Jody’s birthday in her honor as well as in honor of her dear friend Foxie. Every day can be – should be – “Love a Chimpanzee Day.”
Tobin! Thank you so very much for honoring and celebrating these two special chimpanzee women, the friendship they share, and for seeing them as the incredible people they are with so much love and respect.
Jody and Foxie:

Thanks for all you do! I love these blogs everyday and I love all of these chimpanzees’s!
What a lovely relationship these 2 have for each other!
This melts my heart!!!!
I love these two. xx Thank you Tobin!! All of the photos are lovely but I have two favorites: the two of them on the floor, bestest friends sharing a secret; and the hand touching the arm. It’s important for best friends to always know they are close enough to touch…. Which means they are close enough to hug if ever needed.
This is so heartwarming. We are all in turmoil, but here are 2 chimps, who love each other. No fighting over politics or virus just caring friends. Thank You
Tobin, what an excellent idea, I readily join you in celebrating the loyal and loving friendship shared between these precious gals. And I am happy to see your name on the blog….I was just asking if you were alright as I missed reading your witty and touching perspectives on the chimps daily “shenanigans”.
Loved the first photo. Sigh…..
What adorable pictures and such a wonderful friendship they share.
Thanks Tobin,
They really are 2 special girls.
I love reading the blogs of Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest.
Thank you, Tobin!
I’ve been missing you, too, but I know it’s the end of the semester. At least it looks (?)as though your snow is done for the year (hope I don’t jinx you). Good luck making it through the last weeks!
What a lovely post. Beautiful pictures of two special friends Jody and Foxie. So sweet. Thank you Tobin.
Thank you Tobin for your always loving heart when it comes to the chimps & sanctuary…This is one of those special blogs that fill us all with such tender feelings…The photos are particularly moving…Especially the one with their faces being very close together & sweet Jody’s profile showing the outline of her eyelashes…
