Happy Birthday, Mave and Michelle V!
September 25, 2023 by Katelyn -
Many thanks to Michelle Vikander for sponsoring this happy day of sanctuary in celebration of her and Mave’s birthdays!!
“Happy Birthday Mave and myself (Michelle) September 25, the M&M girls!”
We so appreciate you sharing your special day and helping to make Mave’s birthday extra special, Michelle!
As you may recall, we only recently learned that September 25th is Mave’s actual birth date and we used to celebrate her birthday on May 27th. So this year Mave gets two celebrations! Though of course, we celebrate her in all her wonderful, freckled, floofy glory every day.
Beautiful Mave turns 34 today!

Yay!! I will be sure to celebrate the “M&M’s” today! I am looking forward to Mave’s second B-day celebration. Let’s face it, she deserves it.
Happy bday to both!
Thankyou Michelle for sponsoring today in honour of your fellow Birthday Girl Marvellous Mave. Wishing you both a wonderful day. xx
Thanks Michelle for your birthday tribute to Mave, the most distinctive-looking of all the chimpanzees at CSNW!
Happy Birthday M&M girls!
Tobin and I hold the memory of our kind and longsuffering piano teacher Mrs. Middlesworth in high esteem. She helped us find middle C and listened patiently each year to new students pound out The Mighty Speedboat. There is something about Mave and her fondness and watchcare of little Dora that has us so smitten that we have taken to referring to her as Mave Middlesworth in our many phone discussions of all things CSNW. Happiest of Birthday Blessings to Mave. From the beauty mark on your lovely lip, to the way your muzzle always looks freshly powdered in Debutante Peach, you have thoroughly enchanted me. Have a wonderful day being celebrated for just being you. Thanks for being such a good mentor/grooming partner to Dora and a delightful dance partner to Gordo.
“dance partner”
I love it! :laughing::laughing:
Linda, check out the blog archive from July 11, 2022. You’ll catch the lovely ballroom hoofing of Mave & Gordo. It is fantastic.
Happy 2nd Birthday Mave!
And Happy Birthday to you Michelle, how lucky to share a day with mave, I think that makes you very special :birthday:
Thank you Michelle. Hope your day was as delightful as Mave’s and maybe included a dance partner too. Happy birthday to both of you.
Mave is truly beautiful inside and out. Her friendship with Dora is awe-inspiring!
