This sign, hung on the stairs in the playroom, was made by a volunteer 

Home Sweet Home sign that volunteer made for the party

Here’s a photo of some of the chimpanzees eating the nuts and dried fruit we scattered around the playroom. From front to back: Negra, Annie, Missy, Jody. The tables and the rocking dog are great sturdy toys donated from our Target wishlist – they will last a long time! You can also see other enrichment donations in this photo like the bongo drums, shopping cart, shoe, and the monkey sitting on the rocking dog (we’ve been saving that monkey for the party).

Foxie found a new toy! This is a photo of her going towards the stairs with the new toy in her left hand and Trixie the Troll in her right hand. The new toy (a play dog crate) was a donation from a young man in upstate New York who collected enrichment for the chimpanzees for his Bar Mitzvah project. 

Foxie with new toy! 

Always hopeful for more food, Burrito checks out the toy pizza – a fun item donated through our Amazon wishlist.

    I love all of these photos…..especially the group photo!! 🙂 I’m glad to see the Foxie & Trixie are still hanging out together! Is this day 10 of their partnership? Also, congratulations to the young man in upstate New York for choosing to collect enrichments for the gang! That is so wonderful!!!!!
