After swallowing my pride and begging animal lovers on Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and other social networks, I only received donations from two persons from the USA. Jonathan Baty from Piedmond SC $50 and Fiona Young Brown from Lexington KY $10 and I cannot thank them enough for what they have done for the monkeys.
I understand that not all people have the space and time to physically go out there to rescue animals and take care of them but the biggest problem we are facing is finding donations to help animals in need. I'm sure that most people connected to social sites can afford to donate at least $1 to help animals in need. Without your help, animals like the ones on the photos are doomed to a very sad and cruel life in a cage.
I had e-mails from people complaining about my grammar mistakes here on the blog and then unfriend or unfollow me on Twitter. My home language is Afrikaans and I'm trying with my best high school English to get the message of animal suffering to the world. Please just point out the mistakes by leaving a comment at the bottom of this post. Personally I'm not too worried about that, I have bigger problems like lack of funds to feed the monkeys and fighting cancer to deal with. Intelligent people will understand what I'm trying to say.
This morning I received a phone call asking for my assistance with an injured monkey they have found next to the road. They wanted me to come and collect the monkey 55km from here. It breaks my heart to tell people that I cannot help and to take the monkey to a vet. Most people will not do that and will rather kill the monkey than waisting time and money to save him.
