      You must have a very observant family as one must with animals and their styles of communication especially when they need a good human to help them with splinters, eating some weird s**t, skin, hair, nails and teeth and healthy foods. Do baboons have allergies? I wonder what she smells like? It's very calming to watch you caring for Missy Crawford! Thank you 😊❤.

    Cindy is not only the luckiest baboon on this planet, she's definitely one of the luckiest wild animals, on this planet. She has lived nearly three times her expected age in captivity than she probably would have in the wild. That's always been one of my goals, to somewhat domesticate a wild animal. Ruben, you and your family are an inspiration for what you all, do. The fact that you and your brother refer to Cindy as your sister, made me an instant follower of your channel.😁

      ​@tabryis It's really not, if you think about it a little more. A baboon doesn't know the difference. She doesn't know that something is off, for her that's as real as she would have experienced in the wild, where she would have died decades ago, and probably a brutal death at that.

    Wow so fortunate for Cindy that your parents took her in from the neighbors who had her. Obviously its always best when they can live in the wild with their own kind, but since Cindy was a orphan that chance was gone but she and your family both hit the lottery by taking her in. She seems to have the best life you all have been able to provide for her. And having her for that many years she definitely is like family. She maybe old but she is still amazing, beautiful and smart

    Your dedication and daily care helped her a lot, I think. And the bath scene is just great.... your sister Cindy loves you, as the other little ones . I love animals, especially in a context like your beautiful country and farm... Best regards from Paris France 👍 Cindy 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
