Jamie’s in Love

July 13, 2014 by Elizabeth

When Jamie gets a new pair of boots, they become an object of obsession for awhile. She carries them everywhere, and if she’s separated from them, she grows anxious. She often incorporates favorite boots into her nests along with her blankets. This morning she took a nap in the front rooms and snuggled up with her most recent favorite pair.

    Oh my, I love this photo.

    What is it with shoes, or in Jamie’s case boots, and chimpanzees. I know Washoe liked shoes too and I have read about other chimps liking shoes. Makes me very curious. Who knew a new boot could make such a cozy pillow!

    What’s so odd about this? Whenever I get a new pair of shoes, I sleep with them too! 🙂

    What a lovely picture. The boot (and what a cool one at that!) is the perfect pillow to cradle her sweet head.
