Chimpanzees in the mist(er)

July 28, 2022 by Anna

The temperature is hovering around 100 degrees right now in Cle Elum and we all feel it! Luckily, we have many ways to protect the chimpanzees and staff from the extreme elements. In fact, as I type, I can hear the chimps slurping on homemade popsicles that Chad just handed out. Just before lunch we played around with some mister hose attachments to see if anyone was interested. Honey B and Rayne were happy to try it out. I love watching their wild expressions as they try to catch as much water as possible.

Speaking of beating the heat… If I had one wish for the chimps this July, it would be for the amazingly generous donation of that certain portable evaporative cooler that has been hanging out at the top of our Amazon wish list.

Here’s Foxie expending as little energy as possible today:

Happy Birthday, Rachel!

July 28, 2022 by Katelyn

Thank you so much, to long-time friend of the sanctuary, Rachel Ruggeri, for sponsoring today in celebration of the chimpanzees, the bovines and her own special day!:

“I want to donate to my chimpanzee and bovine friends at the sanctuary in honor of my birthday! There is no better way to celebrate than to honor others, furry friends and all. Cheers to a great year ahead!”

Happy Birthday, Rachel! All of us here hope it’s the best one yet and that your kind heart is filled with as much joy and love as it can hold. Just as you make possible for sixteen wonderful chimpanzees and one special bovine family of four.
