Play During Intros

August 14, 2021 by Diana

The video says it all. It was a relief to see Honey B with Rayne and Lucky today and with Dora yesterday. She was different with each one of them, and of course it wasn’t non-stop play, but the play was definitely the highlight!

    Beautiful :heart_eyes: Do you think they remember each other?

    Note to Honey B.: Nothing quite says “Sisterhood is Powerful” like having your sister climb over
    you in an attempt to bite your butt. Nice work, Rayne!

    I have very poor facial recognition amongst humans (totally embarassing, sometimes!) but I can see the resemblance between Honey B and Rayne! Dora has such a great play face. These (re-)introductions for Honey B hold such promise, it’s a joy to see. Whew, I was kind of nervous about her! As always, I’m facscinated by your patience and knowledge about how to proceed, and thanks for sharing and educating us about this process.

    i don’t know how it is for others but I wonder if you might slow down the intro texts. I am an editor and as such can read quickly if I need to but I had to rewind a couple of the intro texts. I know you’re very busy and still tweaking the blog but I just wanted to put in my 2 cents as that progresses.

    The chimp intros seem to be going quite well. That must be a relief, at least so far.

      Here’s a tip so you can take your time when reading the video copy — pause the video and read at your own pace! Then reseum when you want. This is what I do to be sure I don’t miss a single word. ?

      • Kathleen says

        August 15, 2021 at 1:25 pm

        that’s “resume”!

    what I do is hit the pause button, so I can read it all at my own leisure…..

      When I wrote this, Kathleens comment did not show; it looks a bit silly
      to write exactly the same comment…..

    Great to see the girls hidding it of; Honey B. is a women’s woman; who can blame her? 😀
    And in all this meeting and greeting stuff, I was wondering how Gordo is doing?
    You told us that he is a more private person and we haven’t seen much of him, but I was just wondering how he is settling in.
    On to the next introduction; ( I wonder if Jamie would be interested in reading a good magazine with Cy..)
    May love and kindness gide everyone!

    Oh my gosh, this is wonderful! I hope that things continue to progress well, and they all play nice. I am so happy for Honey B; she has sisters! Stay well all, and fingers and toes crossed that everything continues to go well and I hope you can successfully integrate the groups. Thank you all for everything that you do for these beautiful animals, I love you all!

    I love that leg grab at the end,like some kind of physical therapy stretch! I know it may be
    difficult, but I love the idea of reuniting families….you all are doing such great work.
