there is an animal mind reader now....

Lotster · 02/06/2009 22:31

Silly Willy's mum just called and animal psychic to see if her monkey took her pills... for fuck's sake. Wrooong!

FlappytheBat · 02/06/2009 22:35

This programme is wrong on so many levels, just can't make my mind up who is being exploited the most?

Have a feeling that it might just be the great apes!

LastOrders · 02/06/2009 22:35

What a fucked up programme.

It's making me &

What a bunch of inbred arseholes to tear that poor baby away from the mum monkey.

Grr, should switch it off and go to bed.

controlfreakythecontrolfreak · 02/06/2009 22:38

oh. my. fecking. god.

what a horrible horrible idea. those poor monkeys. why would that young couple want to do this.... said they couldnt have children so decided to "adopt" a monkey??? why dont they foster / adopt a child then?? or do all these people have issues that mean they would never be approved??

controlfreakythecontrolfreak · 02/06/2009 22:39

oops. jesus is now telling us about it....

mrsdisorganised · 02/06/2009 22:39

Awful and very sad, especially when there are so many children in the world needing homes. What a world we live in.

themoon66 · 02/06/2009 22:40

Ooh my God... 'some breeders tear them away at a few days old'

FlappytheBat · 02/06/2009 22:41

lets hope "butters" doesn't become pitbull food

themoon66 · 02/06/2009 22:43

DH just wandered in and asked 'what sick shit is this'

LastOrders · 02/06/2009 22:45

I'd love to be the one to tell the red necks their daughter is dirt ugly

"You geet ya' butt outta here and quit saying ma daughtas uuggllyy, before I pop a cap in ya ass, fool"

poshwellies · 02/06/2009 22:51

There is alot of sadness within all of those people.

Maybe therapy for them all would be more apt.

southeastastra · 02/06/2009 22:52

poor monkeys

wonder why that woman hasn't seen her own children for 5 years

lumpsdumps · 02/06/2009 22:59

Now I feel really sick, monkey shows

poshwellies · 02/06/2009 23:01

Can you swop children for monkeys? I'd love a day of no talking back.

FlappytheBat · 02/06/2009 23:03

poshwellies , now wouldn't that be nice and if they were bad, instead of the naughty step, you would have a cage you could lock them into!

Tigerbear · 02/06/2009 23:04

FREAKS! The little baby monkey was very cute though!

southeastastra · 03/06/2009 08:57

why is it legal to own these in the US? i would have thought they'd be quite strict laws..

PuppyMonkey · 03/06/2009 09:02

There was a very small part of me that said: "I want one of those!"

... but it soon went away when I saw that poor mummy reaching out for her baby. And all those knob ends could do was laugh about how the mummy nearly broke the microphone.

jardy · 03/06/2009 09:13

I thought that the young couple had a lot of good points until they were amused by the distraught monkey mother.A very disturbing programme.

Feelingoptimistic · 03/06/2009 10:32

Yes, I watched this too, and was really, really upset by that scene with the mummy monkey in the cage. That young guy obviously has serious issues and needs help from mental health professionals.

Gorionine · 03/06/2009 10:34

I found it very distressing as well and have changed channel several times and back. How arrogant are we (humans) to think that monkeys would actually enjoy being like us??

Fair enough to have a pet monkey, if you treat it like a monkey. There was not a tree in sight for these poor creatures.

Very at the woman who said ""she does not miss other monkeys, she does not know that they are any other monkeys"" So it would be OK to leave a baby human to live in a monkey family (other than Tarzan) as long as they do not know other humans exist?

princessmel · 03/06/2009 10:37

I have recorded this. After reading the thread I don't know if I want to watch it now!

southeastastra · 03/06/2009 13:05

it was kind of funny though when she put lipstick on the monkey and it pouted

cookielove · 03/06/2009 13:15

i was almost screaming at the telly the poor monkeys, all fed on absolute crap?? monkeys sucking lollies!!

The one who got chucked out of a resturant because it was an animal ha the 'mums' face!!!

and the little 2 week old monkey petrified while being licked by the dogs, and them barking, jesus was a nutter

as was the 'mother' of silly willy and 4 or 5 other animals absolute nutters
