Happy Birthday, Cy!

March 12, 2025 by Katelyn

Our heartfelt thanks to the Parella family for sponsoring this special day of sanctuary in celebration of Cy and his 35th birthday!!

From Aprile, Rob and Robbie Parella: “The Parella family would like to dedicate this day of sanctuary in honor of Cy chimpanzee’s birthday. Cy- you’ve given us all a reason to believe in the goodness of humanity. Your caregivers there take such good care of you and your other friends. Sending you some magazines we hope you enjoy on your special day (no cows or brightly painted furniture, we checked). Love, Your human family in Newark Delaware, Uncle Rob, Auntie Aprile and cousin Robbie.”

Rob, Aprile, and Robbie, thank you so much for honoring your Pal, Cy, today and every day!

Cy is really a special guy and it’s a profound honor to know and care for him. This is the first of two sponsorships in celebration of him today and it makes us so happy knowing others cherish him as we do. We can’t wait to share his party with you all later today!

    My Dear Cy,

    I don’t know if your beloved Stanley will have the time to take five from his movie set to send his regards, so I will be more than pleased to substitute for him. I wish you the happiest of birthdays, Cyrus Magnificus. What an amazing and highly agreeable person you are! I am so glad to know you, and to know that we share the same disdain for brightly painted furniture (quel tres gauche, non?).

    Thank you to the Parellas for sponsoring Cy’s special day today. He is such a wonderful example of a benevolent, Kind, calm, intelligent leader. Any chance we can get him to run for office in Congress. Happy Birthday, Cy. i hope you have some Tucci photos to make you smile.
