Good name for a monkey

[LobsterQuadrille]

An adopted monkey. I was thinking Arthur, Bertie or Monty. Any ideas?

Please do come back and share with us the name you choose for your monkey pal.

And photos. Need the photos (if you have any that they send to you)

I'll ask for photos. It's a monkey sanctuary set up by friends of my DD who are taking a (very) extended gap year- they want to be vets eventually. I admire this and like the fact that the monkeys will be released back into the wild. And I've sent Cornelius as my name, because they all know my cat (Cordelia) and they go well together, if a bit similar

Yeay! Fabulous name (and not because I said so ha)

Sounds like a wonderful cause, and I bet they don't come back! Or if they do, they'll go back and be tremendous vets to animals who wouldn't get a shoe-in otherwise! Fabulous, I bet your DD, you and their respective parents are very proud of them.

Long live Cornelius (and the sanctuary)

Oh great name can you tell or PM me the name of the sanctuary are they on facebook i love following animal sanctuaries

I'm sorry MrsJayy I have not been on here! I'm sorry but there isn't any Facebook page or details because the girls are only 19 and 20 and their parents are quite anxious about them being so far away anyway, so it's all privately funded by friends and relatives. Thank you though

Oh fair enough hopefully it goes well for them

As monkeys are prone to babbling incoherent gibberish and throwing sh!t around, you could call him Trump.

HerOtherHalf,

Though, sadly, too true, my friend, too true...

HerOtherHalf - that's brilliant! I shall send that suggestion to the girls
