We would like to welcome the new members
to Monkey Tales.

If you would like to receive the Mindy's Memory
Primate Sanctuary newsletter that is sent out
quarterly, please send your mailing address to
Linda@...

This issue will introduce you to Felix.

Felix, a Bonnet Macaque, was born in
December 2002 and arrived at Mindy's in
September 2005. He shares his enclosure
with Beasley and Abu. They are doing great
together. His favorite fruit is bananas. His
favorite vegetables are sliced carrots and
cucumbers. Felix enjoys chase games and
wrestling. He swings and climbs all over his
enclosure.


If you would like to send sunflower seeds to
the monkeys, visit http://www.nutsonline.com
or any online store you prefer. Linda usually
orders 5 lb bags.

The sanctuary could really use some volunteers.
If you live in the area or know someone who
would be interested, please call Linda at
405-387-4354. If she is not available, there
is an answering machine for you to leave a
message.


When you sponsor a monkey or make a $25.00
donation, you will receive a Flip Album on
CD. You will view monkeys playing, eating
and socializing. This is set to music.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

When shopping online, please check to see
if the store that you will be making your
purchases from is listed with
http://www.igive.com If it is and you choose
Mindy's as your charity of choice the sanctuary
will receive a portion of your purchase total
donated, at no cost to you. The amount
donated varies by store.

You can make a donation to the Building Fund
to help raise funds for housing future residents.
This fund was established after funds were not
raised quickly enough to rescue 2 research
monkeys, Ben and Norman, before they were
sold back into research. You can also donate
to the Mindy's General Fund.

If you know an animal lover and don't know what
to give as a gift, we have the solution. Send a
donation in their name and a card will be sent
letting them know that you have made the
donation.
