New boots for Jamie
March 14, 2012 by Elizabeth -
The kind folks at Seattle-based Chocolate Shoebox are high on Jamie’s list these days. They recently donated several pairs of new boots via a donation drive put on by the Seattle Animal Defense League. After having them modeled for her by her caregivers, she was eager to inspect them closely and take them for a test drive.
Thanks to Chocolate Shoebox and Seattle Animal Defense League!

Yaaaayyyyy!!!! Thanks so much to everyone for making Jamie a happy lady!! A girl after my own heart….”I can’t decide so I’ll just take them all!” 🙂
man, those are really nice boots for Jamie 🙂
Those Boots are Made for Walking, Jamie knows it!
such a lovely clip thank you chocolate shoe box 🙂 very nicely modeled ladies , and i love the close inspection of each boot till Jamie the right one to try on xxxx
That must have been hard to give up those really cool boots but no one deserves them more than Jamie! Does she ever wear her custom made for Jamie boots from Vegan Wares anymore? Those are probably soooo yesterday! 🙂
I haven’t seen her wearing them lately, but I did spot her nesting with them the other day.
Glad Jamie’s got several pairs of new boots. I wonder if someone would ever take the time to actually make a pair or two that would fit chimp feet perfectly… I’d do it if I had those skills, just to see how well she’d wear them. 🙂
I just sent out a big package to you guys today. It’s stuffed with handmade pillows, and there are some in the shape of hearts and stars. There’s also some crayons thrown in for Jamie’s art supplies. I hope the chimps will have a bit of fun with them.
Angela – Someone has done exactly that. Check out this blog post: https://staging.chimpsnw.org/2011/05/these_boots_wre_made_for_walkin/
And we can’t wait to get your package!
Oh, wow! I had seen that post before, but I didn’t realize how they actually fit her feet!
That is very thoughful and generous of Chocolate Shoebox to send Jamie sized taler made vegan boots. Looks like they were a huge hit for Jamie.. The new boots boots cetainly filled Jamies day with fun and enrichment.
