Today was a heartbreaking day at the sanctuary. Our sweet little baby monkey, Lily, was not feeling well. Normally full of energy, swinging from branches and playing with her best friends Leo, Rainbow, and Libby, Lily was quiet, curled up in a corner with a sad look in her eyes. Everyone could sense something was wrong.
Caretakers rushed to check on her. Baby Leo stayed close, gently wrapping his arms around her. Rainbow, always full of joy, looked confused and worried, while Libby, the oldest of the group, sat protectively nearby, showing rare calmness.
The vet was called immediately. Lily had a mild fever and seemed to be suffering from a little stomach trouble—possibly from eating something she shouldn’t have. Thankfully, it wasn’t serious, but seeing her so quiet broke everyone’s hearts. She was given medicine and wrapped in a warm blanket, where she slowly started to rest.
Leo didn’t leave her side, and even Rainbow brought over a favorite fruit as a gift. Libby kept watch like a big sister, gently grooming Lily’s soft fur. The love and care these monkeys show each other is truly beautiful.
By the evening, Lily started to perk up. She gave a tiny squeak and reached for Leo’s hand. It melted everyone’s hearts. The worst seemed to be over.
God help and protect these innocent creatures. They rely on us for love and safety. Moments like these remind us how delicate life is and how important it is to care deeply.
Let’s all send healing prayers for sweet baby Lily. We hope she’s back to her playful self tomorrow, swinging beside her loving friends, Leo, Rainbow, and Libby.
Stay strong, little Lily. We all love you. 💖🐒
