Anyone who seriously finds it acceptable to dress up a wild animal in nappies, bow ties and dresses etc etc is clearly a sandwich short of a picnic and should buy themselves a doll to dress up instead....
I was just wondering Harris_O7,after your confused ranting; first about buying a monkey,then about adopting one,now you're back to dressed-up monkeys-are you doing this just to wind people up or are you really that stupid...?

IMO everything posted by Harris_07 was a wind up in this thread.

I was actually highlighting the point that many people have already made that dressing up animals is wrong.
Believe it or not, I'm not trying to wind anyone up. I asked a question, got told that it would be wrong and then considered adopting. Now I post what most people think is "wrong" and I have to explain my case.
Anyone can adopt an animal from Battersea Park Childrens Zoo also.

Does that allow visits to go and see the adopted animal?
Most zoos have animal adoption schemes, including monkeys and primates. I think there is also one charity that lets you adopt a young orphaned primate at a rehabilitation unit - orang utans spring to mind.
That website upthread was really disturbing. Monkeys are lovely enough without being turned into weird hairy little mini humans. I would question the sanity of anyone who did that.

Why do you click on it then?
Do you guys know any other places in London where you can adopt monkeys (legally)?
