Burrito’s 39th Birthday Snowmageddon

January 6, 2022 by Anna

    The view from our security camera pointed at the driveway.

Today Burrito turned 39! Not only did he turn 39, but he turned 39 in the middle of one of the craziest snow storms I’ve ever witnessed in Central Washington. If you know Burrito, a snowmaggeddon is a fitting party that Mother Nature through for Mr. B-the avid snow snacker.

This morning we woke up to several feet of fresh powder and a warning from the local fire department not to drive the highway that leads us to the sanctuary. A few of us did eventually make it in to help Diana and JB who live on the property and we did our best to shovel/clean enclosures/ and fill the chimps with birthday party food.

Unfortunately, the birthday  pasta video won’t make it up tonight as my own power at home where I am now writing this blog has gone out, and my phone is on its last battery legs.

Stay cozy everyone and happy birthday Bub!

Happy Birthday, Burrito!

January 6, 2022 by Chad de Bree

Today is our very own Burrito’s 39th(!) birthday! And Paulette Wrisley wanted to help celebrate this incredibly energetic, goofy, and handsome guy by sponsoring his birthday!

“My True Love Valentine, Burrito! Happy birthday my sweet and silly boy!”

Thank you so much Paulette for helping us celebrate our Burrito/Bubba/Bubbie/B!

Party preparations are ready to go, as well as a whole lot of digging out from our current snowstorm! All are safe and well, but things may just look a little different today, so bear with us! 😉 And please come back later to see how everyone here celebrated Burrito’s birthday! It’s safe to say that Burrito got allllllllll the birthday snow he could possibly want!

Happy Birthday, Burrito!! We love you more than you will ever know, you sweet, wild guy.
