Welcome Back, Welcome Back

March 25, 2026 by Kelsi

The best part about coming back from a long vacation is seeing all these lovely faces!

The ever so handsome Cy:

Little Foxie gives the best hellos:

Jamie having some alone time in the green house:

Terry foraging seeds and lettuce:

The warmest of greetings from the sweet Lucky:

Sleepy Negra this morning, cozy in her nest, wrapped like a burrito:

The every so elusive, yet playful Gordo:

And of course, the mischievous Honey B:

    Lovely to see dear Neggie wrapped up well and I hope she’s doing much better now. We can tell by that cheeky, mischievous Honey B face that she’s already thought of her next clever adventure!

    Hope it was a good vacay! How surprised was I to find out that it wasn’t you or a new person tap dancing for Neggie, but rather one of the guys!

    Welcome back Kelsi, I hope you had a relaxing vacation. I loved seeing the wonderful pictures, I can never see too many. Honey B looked quite innocent, must mean she’s looking to get into trouble of some kind.

    Lucky you, Kelsi, sneaking away. Hope you had a fabulous time. Everyone in the chimp house must have been so happy to see you back, ready to catch up and play! It must be nice to return to so many loving friends. Thanks for sharing your photos. Terry has a unique and very ingenious way to gather seeds! Much quicker to step on the seeds, thus collecting dozens at once, than plucking them with your fingers, one at a time.

    And I hope dear Negra is feeling alright. And Jamie too. Keeping both in my thoughts each day.
