It’s Foxie’s birthdaaayyy!!

August 8, 2022 by Katelyn

Today Foxie is turning 46! Wahooo! I’m envisioning you all doing pirouettes, back-flips and hanging upside-down while kicking your feet about! Well, at least in your heads. 🙂 Foxie is a magical sprite of a woman if ever there were one, so it makes sense that our virtual fairy godmother of birthday Sponsor-a-Days, Paulette Wrisley, is adding to today’s celebration to help us make it as wondrous as Foxie is.

Paulette, from our hearts, thank you for helping us honor each and every one of the chimpanzees and bovines for the special and unique individuals they are over the past year, plus. I suspect we all aren’t the only ones whose lives you’ve made a difference in. We appreciate you and your kind heart.

Happy Birthday, Foxie!! Our hearts are full to bursting with love for you.

      Katelyn, your photos of Foxie are so…Foxie! The big, full shot of her is simply magnificent. Just look at her! And the two images where she is playing with her troll and yes, the troll is whispering a wonderful secret into Foxie’s ear — just magical. Thanks for your curated photos!

    Thanks to Katelyn for these great photos and to Paulette for honoring Foxie’s day! Foxie just slays me in so many ways. That pic of Strawberry Shortcake whispering sweet nothings in her ear is so heartwarming, and her taking her doll friends on patrols is just plain charming. What a sweetheart of a woman! With all her playfulness and zest for life, you’d think she was turning 6, not 46!

    What beautiful photographs of the beautiful and charming Foxie Chimpanzee. I wish Tiny a happy birthday and another happy new year of playing ganes of Pass-the-Troll and Doll Hockey, hanging upside-down in games of Bat-chimp, and of escorting her trolls, Dora-da-Explorer, and Strawberry Shortcake through the fields and heights of Young Hill.
