Shelly: Shy Shelly!
Writer Mark Twain once said, “Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been.” We think Shelly would agree with Mr. Twain! Shelly is a happy and shy 35-year-old capuchin monkey who is super ticklish. She usually rolls over laughing if her human touches her stomach! One of our favorite things about Shelly is her distinctive wrinkles around her face.
What girl doesn’t enjoy some pampering? Shelly enjoys her weekly bath ritual. She loves to be wrapped in a soft towel and then brushed. We’ve noticed on more than one occasion that Shelly enjoys flirting in the mirror with herself!
Shelly’s favorite snack? She loves walnuts and takes her time savoring each bite. Her favorite meal is probably her apple snack. Playtime is the best! Shelly loves any toys that click and make noise. She’s also quite the little artist, with a flair for drawing.
