Help us give Daisy a last chance of happiness

Daisy the capuchin monkey is old, lonely and needs your help. 

She has just lost her only monkey friend and the couple who cares for her know she needs company so have contacted us for help. We regularly receive requests to rehome monkeys and we can’t always say yes, but Daisy really needs us.

Daisy had a very sad start to life. She was originally confiscated from an exotic animal breeder, where her present owners found her being kept in terrible conditions. When she was rescued she had healed cigarette burns and badly mended, fractured fingers from her previous life. She was probably taken from her mother as a tiny infant and has a laparotomy scar- allegedly from the time she spent imprisoned in a laboratory breeding facility.

Her current owners became her guardians when the breeder was prosecuted. They nursed Daisy back to health and, importantly, found her a companion, but he has recently died leaving her alone once again and desperate for company. Daisy’s owners are now worried that she will not cope alone.

We urgently need to raise £6000 to be able to transport Daisy safely to the Sanctuary, pay for her initial veterinary check and to cover the costs of her ongoing care.

Capuchins are intelligent, social animals that naturally live in large troops in the rainforests of South and Central America. Daisy is elderly and showing signs of distress due to being alone, so we are anxious to ensure that she spends her last years in a caring environment, surrounded by other capuchins. She deserves to live her last years with her own kind and we know we can find her friends at our Sanctuary.

We have taken in over 30 capuchins, many rescued from conditions of abuse and neglect in the primate pet trade. Each individual has been socialised with other monkeys and now live in spacious, natural enclosures at The Monkey Sanctuary.
With your help we can do the same for poor Daisy.

Please help us give Daisy a last chance of happiness by contributing towards her appeal, we cannot save her without your generous support.

Your kindness can change lives.
Thank you.
