Our dear friend and valued member of the chimpanzees’ and bovines’ medical team, Dr. Jennifer Wallace, sponsored this special day of sanctuary: “Giving thanks for all the amazing CSNW staff and volunteers! Wishing the humans and chimpanzees a wonderful Thanksgiving!”
Thank you so much, Jen! We are so grateful to have you as part of our sanctuary family and truly appreciate this lovely sponsorship!
Enjoy these moments from Thanksgivings past, and be sure to join us later for today’s celebration! Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! No matter how, or if, you celebrate today, please know how grateful we are for you and we’re wishing you all a beautiful day.

Giving thanks for all the hardworking caregivers who devote themselves to the great apes living in sanctuaries. And to you, Dr. Jennifer Wallace, for sponsoring and caring for my very favorite group of chimpanzees.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

?Dr. Wallace,
On behalf of the Chimpeople and the Bovineighbors, I am grateful to you and your colleagues who provide such excellent care for your patients at the sanctuary. Indeed, I am grateful to learn — as I recently did — that Honey B appears hto have followed in her mother’s professional footsteps as an on-site dermatologist…
Oh, and that photograph of Jody and Foxie lulling in the bliss of a plant-based triptophan haze…all that ecstatic happy dinosaur moaning during a Thanksgiving Day feast can induce a need to nap afterwards.

Thank you, Dr Wallace, today and every day! And thank you to Katelyn and all of the staff who is working today, cooking and dishing out the sweet potatoes, slicing and scattering the rolls, steaming the green beans, getting cranberry sauce in those tiny cups, diluting the cider! it never escapes me that this is a 365 days a year job! And then you make videos to share with us to make us happy, too!
I know lots of us express our thanks regularly, but on holidays more than ever, you brighten the chimps’ lives. and ours!
Kathleen says
Exactly! Well said. I was thinking the same thing. Thank you all, from the bottom of our hearts!
CeeCee says
Happy Thankgiving Everyone !
I’m so thankful to everyone who works so hard at the sanctuary, even on holidays.
And for getting to know all the chimpanzee family.
There’s something about the holiday’s that make you really miss loved ones that are no longer here,….Jody :revolving_hearts:

Thank you, Dr Wallace and thank you all at the sanctuary. Not only do you enrich the lives if your beloved residents 365 days a year but you also enrich the lives of your supporters. I particularly loved the photo of dear Jody and Foxie resting after the last Thanksgiving festivities. It does indeed induce a nap. Enjoy your special day and I will be with you in spirit.
