Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest
Hope. Love. Home. Sanctuary
Thank you, Kaite McGrew for sponsoring today and helping the Cle Elum Seven continue to lives filled with variety, enriching experiences, play and love! Every single donation to the sanctuary helps us to fulfill our mission, and we couldn’t do it without supporters (and Facebook fans!) like you.
Anyone can sponsor a day of sanctuary! Visit the Sponsor-a-Day section of our donation info page.
Supporter and friend Tamela recently sent the chimps an incredible (and huge!) care package with all sorts of goodies. Foxie’s favorite gift was the doll featured in the video below. It’s always a little bittersweet to see Foxie exhibit such natural mothering behavior given her impoverished history, but it’s so rewarding to be able to provide her with another chance.
Thanks, Barb in Ohio for making the pledge to cover the remaining $873 we had to go to reach our second fundraising goal! As of this morning (thanks, in part, to a generous check from Kat Morrell and to Tamela’s continued success with her Etsy store), we’re up to $40,476 raised! So close to our ultimate goal and three cages windows replaced with glass!!
With Karen and Don Young’s generous match for each new goal we reach towards our 2nd Anniversary Fundraising, we have just $873 to go to reach $40,000 and 2 caged windows replaced by bullet proof glass and $3,373 to go to reach our ultimate goal and replace three caged-windows windows.
Thanks so much to everyone who has donated and raised funds so far!
Only 27 days to reach the ultimate goal!
Happy day, Felicity! Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest celebrates your day today, thanks to Catherine, Lindsay, Jamie, Annette and Amy. Pant hoots to you from all of your primate friends at the sanctuary, including the humans!

Today was “fill the tub with water” day. We thought it would be fun to throw some of the forage in the tub. Apparently we do not know much about the buoyancy of fruit, because we figured grape tomatoes would float. They sank right to the bottom, and this turned into “accidental” enrichment for Missy and Jamie.
P.S. Thank you to Tamela for the sturdy tubs!
Foxie and Jamie have had some pretty epic play sessions lately, but they’re not the only ones in good moods…
