They LOVE to play.

A happy monkey is a playful monkey and a playful monkey is a happy monkey.

We put lots of toys in the cage including mirrors because they love to see the little monkey and will often stare at it. Also plenty of things to swing from, climb, hang from and perch on.. They seem very drawn to bright colors especially orange.

Playing with your monkey

We find that they like to play peek-a-boo so we make a point of giving time to do that each day which helps bonding. We also use soft toys and play with those, they will often play fight with the soft toy and of course chew the heck out of it…

Biting and chewing are a major part of interaction remember so expect to get your fingers and you ear lobes nibbled and chewed…

When tame enough you can massage behind their ears - they love this so much they’ll often fall asleep

Verbal Play

They’re very vocal creatures and we like to make noises to see which they react to, we also like to mimic some of their noises which seems to really make them interact.. Just have fun with it because these guys will love every minute.
