Red Monkey

New to this world, this monkey is looking for a loving home-- though of course always welcome at mine. It's just that sitting on a shelf with like 40 or 50 other monkeys tends to make one either shrink or try to find a way to stand out. This one jingles like a pocket full of spare change. His Chihuahua like eyes seem like they could look around corners. This monkey could be comfortable on the bottom of the sea, where there is only a hint of the sun, or in the treetops, sparkling with morning dew, screeching in a language more understandable than English.
