Happy Birthday, Tobin!
July 1, 2020 by Katelyn -
Rebecca Babcock sponsors today in honor of one of our long-time supporters, Tobin!
“Today marks the day that I received 98.76% of the chimpanzee that I had requested of my mother and our local physician, Dr. Fred. I love you, Tobin. I have long since forgiven the non-chimp 1.24% By your gracious introduction of 10 new friends and 4 beautiful bovines out in Washington, you have totally redeemed yourself. Happiest Of Birthday Wishes to you.”
Thank you for making a difference in the lives of the chimpanzees and cattle in honor of Tobin! What a lovely thing to do.
Tobin, we so appreciate your presence, heart and support of the chimpanzees, bovines (and humans!) here and all of us wish you the happiest of days! Thank you for being part of our chimp family! Happy Birthday!
Dear, beloved Jody. Whatever Jody does, she does fully present, with her whole heart. Whether she’s foraging for her beloved wild greens, relaxing in her nest, or making sure that her family members are safe and looked after, she makes all our lives and hearts so much fuller. She inspires us every single day. Thank you so very much for being her pal, Tobin. We wish you a Jody kind of day.

We ended June celebrating J.B. and we kick off July celebrating Tobin. How lovely!
Happy birthday Tobin! May you live out your year like Jody — enter the world every single day ready to gather armfuls of joy, and appreciate and bestow love upon everyone around you.
Kathleen: I look forward to your “comments” every single day –they are interesting and well written — but todays comment: “May you enter the world every single day ready to gather armfuls of joy and appreciate and bestow love upon everyone around you : is truly a beautiful passage. I wrote it down and will post it on my frig.
what an awesome (and funny!) sister!
Yes, Tobin, have a Jody kind of day! Especially the part where you kick back and relax like a professional! Happy birthday!
Happiest of birthday wishes to you, Tobin!
Have a wonderful day!
Thank you Katelyn, Kathleen, Linda, Sherry and Jackie for your kind words. Though I have not quite developed a palate for cattails (or pine needles, though I did try eating one in emulation of my pal, Farmer Jody), I was able to have a Jody-worthy day.
As for my benefactor, ever since I introduced Rebecca B. to the residents o f the CSNW, she has gone…well, please refer to the visuals provided by Negra in the blog posting from July 17, 2019. You’ll get the idea…
