Today’s enrichment theme was “lots of paper.” Burrito had no trouble at all making sure he celebrated the day properly.

Sometimes its just the simple things that are joyous!
He certainly brought me joy just watching him.
Annie had FOOD, and all he cared about was the paper! Good grief, Goofy Guy!:smile:
And was that Neggie at the end of the catwalk, simultaneously trying to nap amd watch the kitchen?
Hilarious! Burrito is such a gunny guy. I think the sound the roll of paper made was half the fun. I simply adore him.
Annie, quietly enjoying her fruit, with one leg resting on tiptoes, while Burrito makes a ruckus…I thought that was priceless until I saw Negra, snug up against the wall, giving a sideways glance, slightly disturbed by Paper Boy!
Burrito makes a simple enrichment activity fun to watch.
They are the happiest beings on earth! Thank you to the wonderful staff for providing them with such a loving, enriched life!!
Hi i would like to volunteer if possible.

Bubba is having just the best time. I just love watching him.
Hilarious.
Made me think of Boomwhackers; plastic tubes that make a tone when you whack them.
Of course different length, diferent tone. You can make music with them.
That would be something for Burrito.

I am expecting a video of the Chimpanzee orchestra very soon….:grin::grin:
Burrito might appreciate it, but I think Neggie might have a few objections to Burrito having access to any more noisemakers! Might have to get her some noise cancelling headphones to go along!
So fascinating to see “Burrito” entertaining himself! What a, lively, character who enjoys life. The, funniest, antics I have ever sen.
