Dubby


Dubby was brought to RAPS as an unspayed female... or at least she was thought to be. When she was taken in to be spayed, the vet discovered the job had already been done. Hearing the news, Carol gave her the name Dubby, short for "double spay."

Personality-wise, I find the "super fluffy monkey" description on Barbara Doduk's Flickr page both amusing and apt.

I didn't get to see quite the upside down monkeying pictured above, but a visit with Dubby during my shift this evening did involve a more than adequate amount of purring, rubbing, wriggling and waving of paws. A lovely girl.
