DH monkey was stolen/the chase

[donna1990]

He has a little copucion monkey that is so smart, had him for years. He was trained in the circus business and when the owner died Rod bought him.
His name is Bobby, lives on Rod's farm and has escaped several times but they always catch him. He can play baseball, never misses a pitch, gives you 5, hugs, he is so cute. Everybody knows Rod including the sheriff's department because of the size of his farm and animals escaping, etc. Well, last Wed. morning when he arrived there, the monkey was gone and the 3 locks on his cage were gone, someone stole him. For 3 days, he got calls from people and the deputies of sightings but he was traumatized and would not come to Rod.
They saw him sitting on a fence and tried offering him Cheetozs, (his favorite treat), and didn't know the fence was electrical so Bobby got zapped and off he went again. This area he was running in was probably 6 miles or so.
Sat. morning we got a call and he went over and sat a trap with a trap door and put cheetozs in there and he went for it. When he got to his home, he laid on top of his house and hugged it.
Needless to say, Rod and Bobby are very happy.
Hope I didn't bore you.

Donna, I had no idea you had a monkey, you never mentioned it. I remember in grade school, our crossing guard had a little tiny monkey. Once in a while she would let me and a neighbor girl come in and see it. I remember back then how bad I wanted one...lol....typical kid.

Have any pictures?
