I am a Jonny the Monkey, #1 most famous celebrity in all Kazakhstan. Good friend Borat, who list Jonny as favorite televisions star on hims Myspaces page, still only #4 most famous even after great success movie film...

Me also Capuchin monkey so can definitesly answer your questioning!

I like eat hamboogers with extra pickle, eat cook goat, and also eat potato when not throwing one at gypsy assistant when make Jonny angry.

Me also like drink whisky and fermented horse urine - it national drink of Kazakhstan!

How oftens do this..? Jonny currently on tour to make promotion of latest movie, so eat lot of your U.S. and A. fast foods like hamboogers. Not easy get fermented horse urine here, so spend most of weekend drinking whisky... sometime get so drunk, gypsy assistant have to carry Jonny home from disco nightclubbing late at night, then Jonny wake up in morning with pants on backward and 20 dollar bill in teeth! *High Five*

Me hope that answer you question!

I have 2 squirrel monkeys and my mother in law has 3 capuchins. They do require A LOT of work, so make sure you have done the proper research before getting one. Visit http://www.PetMonkeyInfo.com for more detailed information on life with a pet monkey and their care. The need 24 hour companionship, specialized diets, and enrichment, in order to be happy. They are a LIFETIME Commitment and will bond to you and your family.

They require monkey chow specially made for New World Monkeys, and a variety of fruits and veggies. Mine eat soaked biscuits, carrots, peanuts, grapes, broccoli, asparagus, cauliflower, apples... They should be fed the varied stuff about 2-3 times a day, but always leave a fresh supply of monkey chow and water.

Visit the vet as soon as the monkey is acquired for all shots (rabies, tetanus, rubela...) and tests, tuberculosis and overall health. After that about once a year for vaccine updates and general checkups.

BUT please remember to do your RESEARCH. Monkeys are not like having a dog. It can be the best experience of your life or the worst. It all depends on how you educate yourself.
