Hey yall,
Just found out today we got the penthouse we wanted
Its 4000 sqft 5 bed and 6 bath (not relevant to the story just wanted to share)
So anyway myself and my flatmate found the place and we have a friend here we would like to share with, we discussed it tonight and 1 of the topics
that came up was pets.
Like most Australians growing up Ive always had at least 1 pet in my house, I normally prefer dogs but since Ive been in Malaysia Ive only lived in
apartments and felt it wasnt fair to have a dog inside all the time so cats have been the way forward.
My flatmate says she has never been a fan of cats and wants to get a small dog, she assures me she will walk it everyday so I feel its ok, weve
decided to get a puppy and kitten together so they grow up friendly and have company.
Now the guy weve decided to move in with us wants a monkey, Being honest it sounds FRICKEN AWESOME!!!!!!
Seriously how cool would it be to have a monkey?
Before posting this I checked out a few sites that had info on monkeys as pets and other than the commitment being longer than a dog or cat and
monkeys needing more stimulation it doesnt seem to hard.
So I was wondering if anyone on here has any experience with monkeys as pets and could maybe offer some advice or warnings?
I would love one but would it be happy?
It is legal to have certain breeds of pet monkeys here and they are bought from dealers.
Most likely to get a spider monkey or a capuchian due to them both being very docile and tame.
Any thoughts?
