Burrito’s group received an item from the Comfort and Joy online auction today! We put out the Wearable Fox Blanket Hoodie. I was fortunate enough to try it on for the chimps before we left it in the Playroom. It was very cozy, so much so I think it is in a nest right now. Thank you so much to Diana K. for donating this wearable blanket for the chimpanzees, I know Burrito and Negra are going to love it
It was a hard day to get photos of the chimps, but here is a series of Negra eating an apple from this weekend:
And sweet Terry:
We are overjoyed with the generosity for Giving Tuesday. Big thanks to everyone who donated to honor Jody’s legacy and provide care for the chimpanzees. It means the world to us.
Susan Kathleen Feeley says
I love this blanket hoodie, Kelsi, from the generous donor and you sure “wore it well”. Very impressive, but did the chimps fight over the hoodie when they saw it in the playroom? Also whose night nest does it grace? It will be a welcomed addition to keeping those darlings cosy and warm. Thanks for sharing this and for the shots of apple munching Negra and sweet Terry.
Linda C says
Oh, Kelsi, you’re always willing to don a mask or an outfit for them!
if Birrito puts it on, everyone keep phones at the ready for filming!
Thx for the pics, too! Now we know how Neggie got those big, stretchy lips she has!:laughing:
(that’s a sizeable apple! yum!)
Nancy Duryea says
I’m anxious to see any of the chimps wearing or using the Fox Hoodie in their nest. I’m not sure they could look any better than you in it Kelsi.
Tobin says
Thank you for featuring photographs of my two favorite people in the world who share a June 13th birthday. As Neggie no doubt knows the old saying: “An apple a day keeps Dr. Missy from conducting an unsolicited podiatric exam…”
Eli says
Now a tomato on the other hand….
Kathleen says
That fits you to perfection, Kelsi! Hope you got one for yourself. I also hope someone gets a photo of one of the chimps snuggled into the robe with hood on.
Thanks for the photos of Neggie and Terry. Warms my heart seeing their closeup freckly faces. Even with her mouth stuffed with the apple slice, Negra looks especially beautiful in the lighting of the first photo in the series. Here eyes are amazing!
Eli says
Love the photo series of Neggie and the photo of Terry at the end. Two lovely and beautiful freckled faces. They also both share fabulously expressive lips!
I wonder whose nest the fox blanket ended up in…
