Cy’s 35th Birthday Celebration!
March 12, 2025 by Kelsi -
Today we celebrated Cy’s 35th birthday!
Ellen, the ever so thoughtful and creative caregiver, created a one-of-a-kind birthday magazine just for Cy! As many of you know, Cy has an undeniable love for People magazines, so naturally, Ellen filled his personal edition with different articles of his favorite people, fashion, piping hot tea from around the sanctuary, and so much more. We’ll need an entire blog just to showcase this amazing creation—it was nothing short of extraordinary! Cy also had a bookcase full of People, In Touch, Stars, and other magazines that capture his love for all things pop culture. Of course we had a forage filled with Cy’s favorite foods, including a chow cookie he could not stop food squeaking for on the Bray!
From the very first moment I met Cy, he completely stole my heart. He is the kind of person who captivates everyone he meets. Cy is kind by nature, endlessly patient, playful, courageous, and a master at making friends with anyone he crosses paths with. He shows grace to the people around him, and he truly cherishes quality time with his loved ones. Cy is the kind of guy who makes everyone’s day brighter! It’s an honor and a privilege to call him a friend.
We also want to give a special thanks to Paulette Wrisley who sponsored today for Cy! We so appreciate her and her love and celebration of each of the chimpanzees.
I will leave you with a few of my favorite pictures of Cy, BUT be sure to look out for his birthday party video tomorrow!

Hi Kelsi, this is such a lovely tribute to our birthday boy, Cy. I think you need to print it and slip it into one of Cy’s magazines so he can read it. I can’t wait to see Ellen’s custom designed magazine! Wow. Cy is so lucky to have each and every one of you in his circle of friends.
Happy happy birthday dear beautiful Cy! What a party! You deserve all the wonderful surprises that Ellen made for you and the special celebration with everyone. You are loved. Thank you Paulette for sponsoring today too. Great photos Kelsi:). We are looking forward to seeing the video!!!
