Mave has been in such a fantastic mood lately. She has been grooming a lot with Honey B and Willy B. She has been very playful, playing chase with caregivers, full contact wrestling with her roommates, spinning around on the floor, even climbing the caging so she can to meet the caregivers at eye-level to show off her amazing play face and presenting her belly. I didn’t have the camera on me at the time, and Katelyn and I weren’t able to pull our phones out quick enough to catch it yesterday. So here’s a photo from a couple weeks ago during one of our play sessions. You would just have to image her with that face, but high on the caging to meet eye-to-eye before jumping down and engaging in another game of chase.
One other sign Mave is getting into a playful mood is with her fashion choice. When she is playful, she usually plays with a sock or puts it on as Kelsi mentioned in Mave’s birthday blog. Recently, she has been loving these fruit themed socks we have in our enrichment inventory.
And today, she decided the banana sock was today’s choice after a rousing game of chase.
Once her sock was on, the game of chase continued.
There are only two other fruit sock variations left I have not been able to catch a photo of her with: grapefruit and pineapple. I have seen her wear or at least interact with them, just haven’t been able to capture them on camera.
Speaking of two different variations, have you seen the Mave shirt available on the Queen’s Brunch Online Auction? There is a brown version and a blue version. I am super thrilled with how these designs came out and can’t wait to get mine.
Be sure to register for the Queen’s Brunch to ensure you receive updates on items added to the auction.
Those are some great pics! She has such a sweet face. She’s clearly enjoying her new home and way of life. I’m so happy for her!
Well, hi, Mave!
So today the banana sock was more a-peeling?
What? Um, yeah, sure, I’ll show myself out..see ya later!
As if seeing the chimps wearing socks isn’t funny enough (not mentioning any names…Missy!) but these fruit socks make it doubly funny. I love the way Mave is often photographed upside-down. What a goofy girl. Her play face has a way of stealing your heart…. sigh. (…and I ordered a Mave shirt in blue, it’s a great graphic. Perhaps I’ll have to wear it with some fruit socks.) We love you Marvelous Mave!
Oh Mave??? I can’t with those socks? I’m so happy that she is feeling at home and secure enough to let her silly side out!
I just love Mave.
I got the Mave shirt in brown for my husband !
It’s a really cool design 🙂
Sweet little Mave! The pictures of her playing with her fruit socks is precisely what we all needed right now. Thank you.
