Neighborhood watch

September 24, 2020 by Anna

Jamie called me into action this afternoon.

We needed to quickly get to the top of the hill to investigate and hopefully chase away our neighbors who had come by. Don’t they know we are in the middle of a pandemic?

Also, she brought along a carrot leftover from lunch.

Carrots aren’t at the top of of her vegetable list but she’s not always willing to give hers up. A funny side story about Jamie, she occasionally gives us back food she doesn’t want. She purposefully pushes it outside the caging, instead of dropping it so a group mate can easily grab it. Jamie can be *ahem*… a touch malevolent from time to time.

But back to the tale our nosy neighbors! Burrito and Missy briefly joined our investigative adventure.

And Jamie successfully surprised our neighbors a little bit, which must surely have been gratifying.

But in the end, all is well that ends with a friendly equine photo shoot.

As you are simultaneously stared at by a carrot toting chimpanzee.

Happy Birthday, Donna and Paula!

September 24, 2020 by Katelyn

Donna Haggarty-Robbins sponsored today in honor of a double celebration with this really lovely message:

“Today is my sister Paula’s (Andrews) birthday and mine! I can’t think of a better way to celebrate our birthdays (4 years apart) than to support the wonderful work you all are doing at Chimpanzee Sanctuary NW. These retired and rescued medical research chimps deserve all the loving care the dedicated Sanctuary staff provides them, year round.”

Happiest of birthdays to you both, Donna and Paula! Thank you so much for your generous support and kind words. We’re so grateful for the love and abundance that surrounds the chimpanzees and their home. All of us hope you have a beautiful day!
