Happy Birthday, Annie!
September 10, 2018 by Katelyn -
The chimps’ good friend, Monica Best, sponsored today in honor of beautiful, beloved Annie! Annie, unbelievably, turns 44 today and naturally, we’ve been planning her celebration for days!
Monica, thank you as always for holding the chimps in your heart and for all you do to add to their lives! We appreciate you remembering Annie on her special day!
As I type this, the chimp house is singing with Annie’s classic “bird-noises” she makes by whistling through her hands and she’s washing her hair and face with water in her classic morning routine. Annie, 44 never looked so good! We have an exciting day ahead so check back later to see the festivities!
We love you so much, Annie! Your courageous, kind, gentle, goofy, endearing, full-of-moxie soul is an inspiration every day. May this, and each birthday ahead, be the best of birthdays yet!
Annie wouldn’t quite be Annie without her love for her best friend, Missy:
