Just a short note. About two weeks ago we were able to bring a new monkey into our home. She’s quite the mess, which makes her fun.
Her name is Queenie Juliet Kong but we call her Juliet and we’re hoping we can find her a Romeo.
She doesn’t like women to be any where near me.
I’m writing about her on my Living in the Philippine site.

Hey Rusty,
We have been looking for a macaque and came across your pages when searching for philippine pet monkey. We live in Daanbantayan and are planning to get a baby macaque soon. I would love to talk to you about your experiences, etc. We are from the same neck of the woods, I grew up in Louisiana. Give me a call 437-8038

According to the National Geographic website, pet monkeys may seem novel, but in reality trying to keep these animals as pets is cruel:
Veterinarian Kevin Wright of the Phoenix Zoo in Arizona says primates are highly intelligent, emotionally complex, and long-lived animals that need to be around their own kind in order to develop normally.
“If you try to keep them as pets you’re creating a mentally disturbed animal in 99.9 percent of the cases,” said Wright, director of conservation, science and sanctuary at the zoo. “The animal will never be able to fit in any other home. Never learn how to get along with other monkeys. And, more often than not, will end up with a lot of behavioral traits that are self-destructive.”
If you want a monkey, volunteering at a zoo, refuge or rescue sanctuary would be a thoughtful and kind alternative.
Amanda, I completely agree that monkey’s should be left in the wild. If you read Juliet’s history, you might understand why I have her. I would love to see her in the wild. That is where she belongs. She was mentally ill when I got her.
