Two reasons to celebrate!

April 3, 2025 by Anna 3 Comments

Today just so happens to be two special occasions worthy of acknowledgement around here…

First off, it’s the first Thursday of April which means it’s National Burrito Day! We thank the creators of this day because it gives us just one more reason to celebrate our very own Burrito Chimpanzee!  Burrito spent his own personal holiday wildly bouncing one of his orange plastic balls, watching his favorite YouTube videos and being his usual charming self.

Happy National Burrito Day to all who celebrate. Here are a few more photos of that handsome guy!

 

Our second reason to celebrate is that it’s Dr. Jane Goodall’s 91st birthday today!

From Dr. Goodall’s official Facebook page: “This April 3rd, honor Jane’s 91st birthday by joining #GoodAllDay. Take a positive action—whether big or small—that makes the world a little better for people, other animals, and the planet we all share. Because every act of hope, no matter how small, has the power to change the world.”

What was your positive action to make the world a better place today? Share in the comments!

Bonus Willy B and Lucky photos from today:

In memory of Doreen Hughes and Jody

April 3, 2025 by Katelyn 11 Comments

Sending our gratitude out to Donna Hughes for sponsoring this lovely day of sanctuary in memory of both her beloved sister, Doreen Hughes, and our beloved Jody:

“Remembering our two girls who transitioned in April. Doreen (Hughes) and Jody. Both girls were incredible friends. Both girls are missed enormously. Doreen was so happy to have “met” Jody and her friends on our visit. Life can never be the same, but their spirits remain with us always. We feel their presence around us, and know they are still with us. How lucky we were to have known and loved both of them. Let’s honor Jody and Doreen today!!!”

How lucky we have been, indeed. <3
