Fast, Just like Missy!

December 2, 2020 by Kelsi

What better timing that yesterday’s blog was all about how fast Missy is and today’s blog is all about how fast Honey B is. I am not sure anyone is as fast as Missy, but that might be a trait Missy gave to her daughter Honey B! Unlike her mom who is more of a chimp’s chimp, Honey B likes to seek out her caregiver’s attention if it is an option, though she does enjoy spending time with Mave and Willy B too! Honey B is a very creative person. She loves making up silly games and she always has us laughing! One of her favorite games might be where she has a caregiver chase her, then she sprints out into the chute, and busts back through the door at a full sprint! I was only able to catch a short moment of Honey B playing this game, but I assure you all it went much longer (Willy B slept through all of it)! Sometimes she even likes to sprint up into the mezzanine, run around upstairs, swing on the bars, climb down the ladder downstairs, sprint out through the chute, and then of course repeat! After Honey B has burned off a small amount of energy, she usually appreciates it if you sit with her. This is where she would enthusiastically groom the person she is with or simply stare into your eyes and relish your company. Honey B really just likes spending quality time with her people, human or non-human.

It’s now time for Honey B to get her beauty sleep!

    Fast enough that she almost ran into the opposite wall, lol!
    Thanks, Kelsi!

    Is there a reason why you guys have turned off comments on all of your YT videos?

      Hi Linda! Thank you for asking :). Yes, unfortunately with YouTube we get a lot of internet trolls. Though Foxie loves trolls, we do not :). Long story short, we felt that we were putting too much energy into responding to really awful comments. They can be quite taxing, mentally. YouTube was really a place for us to upload videos and the blog is where the real content is. We hope to guide people to the blog if they want to learn more or reach out to us through our website. Fingers crossed!

        Great idea; who needs all that negativity nonsence.

        What a shame….through comments, I’ve sent viewers here, and I take on trolls when I see them! I know you put the blog address at the end, but sometimes, having someone who follows it explain how great the blog is helps.

    I’m really, really glad the CSNW is that individual residents decide when they go wherever, but can’t help thinking Honey B would really enjoy running outside. Someday . . .

    That was great Kelsi. Honey B is FAST! I dream of the day she ventures outside and runs like the wind, just like her mom. But, I’m also perfectly Okay if Honey B chooses to remain inside tearing it up. For now, she sure looks pretty dang happy zooming about, makes her beauty rest well earned.

    In that last photo, Honey B’s classic deadpan look kills me. She’s so funny.

      Yes! I hope one day she is zooming around the Hill! What a sight that will be :)! I am glad you noticed that! Her expression looks like: “Today was fun, but you need to go so I can sleep!”

    I suspect that Honey B secretly is a performer…the way she runs through the “curtains”…Tadaa…and then receives all the aplause she so rightfully deserves.
    Wouldn’t it be great if Honey B AND Missy would run together side by side? ( ach well, a girl can dream sigh…).
