More love from Trish!
December 30, 2017 by Katelyn -
In her desire to do something special for the chimpanzees, Trish Loesch recently sponsored not one, but two days of sanctuary, with today being the second!
In the immediate sense, we’ve been watching the chimps enjoy so many joy-filled days this holiday season. Warm, yummy foods, heaps of the softest of blankets, new enrichment to spark their curious and intelligent minds, beloved favorites like boots and dolls, and all the comforts and joys we as humans enjoy as well.
And in the long-term, we’ve been watching the chimps step more fully each day into the freedom to make their own choices, the dignity that comes with being respected and appreciated just for who you are, the courage to explore and take new risks, and the comfort of being at peace in one’s own skin and own home. Those are no small gifts.
Trish, thank you for immensely for contributing to the ever-expanding ripple of love, compassion and generosity surrounding the chimps that not only makes their lives in sanctuary possible, but makes more than they may have ever dreamt, possible.

Such comfy, cozy, peaceful photos. Sigh……
A wonderful look of peace on these beautiful faces.
Love this! If no one is available to accompany Jamie on her walkabouts, will she just go ahead on her own or does she insist that someone is available? 🙂
Ha ha- I love the last photo. A couple of chimps who are on the ball – double effort to make sure everything is properly observed !! 😀
“Sleep in Heavenly Peace…” What a gift these seven people are. I love them.
They look as if they are observing from the top of the world! Beautiful views all around them, they are so lucky. I have always been curious about Negra and the way she favors her view of the valley below, especially the passing trains. I wonder what she thinks of that train? Jody looks so pensive as she keeps her eyes peeled on Orange J.B. and I have to wonder again, what is she thinking? Oh to be Dr. Doolittle and be able to communicate and learn from them directly. ???? Thanks for these photos, always a spark in my day!
