Monkey Diaries
Short blurbs about the cute or noteworthy antics of Juliet, our Philippine monkey, that thinks she’s human.
Juliet, The Cell Phone Thief!
Tonight while putting Juliet back in her cage, two very pretty Filipina approached us. Dang it, I didn’t have my camera with me! LOL One of them wanted a picture of Juliet. As she leaned in to take a picture, I warned her not to get to close. Just as I did, Juliet sprang into [...]
Juliet Using Tools 06-03-09
Philippine Monkey with Tools Jessie gave Juliet some ice. She was excited about it, mostly because I don’t think she knew exactly what it was. She soon dropped it as she didn’t like holding anything that cold. She then put it inside the can but that didn’t really solve her problem. It seemed she thought [...]
Happy Monkey 06-02-09
Juliet and The Bamboo Pole Today we added a bamboo pole to Juliet’s cage. I’m amazed at how happy she was over such a simple thing. She pounded on it and jumped up and down on it. When we sawed the ends off so it would fit better and placed those inside as well, she [...]
Juliet Houdini
Juliet the Escape Artist I wrote a story earlier today about Juliet escaping last night. Some how the clasp on her leash connecting it to the waist band that Jessie made for her had come off. I thought it was just an unlucky moment. Today however, I went outside to find that she had removed [...]
Miss My Monkey
It had been an entire week since Juliet had been out of her cage! I was out of town for most of that week and I’m the only one that can get her out and make sure she’s under control. When I got home, I was sick so I was afraid to spend any significant [...]

In Heat?
I spent a couple of days in Cebu City last week. When I arrived home, Juliet stayed away from me. Rather than presenting herself to be groomed, she moved away from me. I thought she was mad since I hand’t given her any attention for the last two days. It was dark when we got home around 9:30pm.
Cats and Juliet 05-19-09
Juliet and The Cat
We noticed how much she dislikes cats and bats. When a bat flies overhead, she’ll look up and chatter at it. When a cat came by, she went ballistic.When Monkeys Attack
Walking With My Philippine Monkey 05-11-09 Took Juliet out for a walk today. Once again, she jumped on Jessie’s head. I THINK she just wanted to be with Jessie but we don’t know that. I pulled her off quickly. Jessie’s nerves were a bit frayed after that so I walked her home. I really needed [...]
Sneaking Up on Her Friend
Juliet Stalks Her Friend I have noticed Juliet will grab her towel and cover her head. A few days ago I thought she was trying to sneak up on something, I don’t remember what. When she puts the towel over her head she can’t see so I think she believes she cannot be seen. Today [...]
Acting Like A Monkey
05-09-2009 This morning I was outside watching Juliet. We put a 1.5 liter coke bottle with coke left in it on top of her cage. This is great stimulation for her. Keeps her busy most of the day. It also makes her work for “food” as she would do in the wild. She has to [...]
