Today is a big day here as we celebrate the 16th anniversary of the sanctuary AND birthdays for Terry and Negra! We have two donors who are generously sponsoring today!

Starting the day off, we send so many thanks to Holly Hayward for sponsoring this special day of celebration for the sanctuary residents and especially for her Chimpanzee Pal, dear Terry!

“Love to sponsor this day for the chimps for so many reasons! Negra’s & Honey B’s birthdays, my husband’s birthday, but most especially, Terry’s birthday! (Don’t tell my husband). To the most handsome, floofiest (I think that’s a word), sweetest guy, and my favorite YouTube influencer-Happy Birthday Terry!!!!!”

Firstly, “floofiest” is most definitely a word! And it’s one you would definitely hear the humans use in regard to Terry and his half-sister, Mave! Holly, thank you so much for seeing how special Terry is and for starting this very special day off with even more to celebrate! And Happy Birthday, to your husband, too! (Even if he’s not as floofy as Terry!). 😉
