| Kimon and her kitten, Barcroft Media/Landov |
Maybe it's
a case of empty nest syndrome?
Kimon, an
8-year-old long-tailed monkey, has taken in a kitten as one of her own at the
Bintan Island home the two share in Indonesia.
Seen in
photographs taken on Sunday, Kimon keeps the cat close at hand, even grooming
it and inspecting it for fleas. The furball is rarely out of the monkey's
grasp, even as she makes her way around her habitat.
But Kimon
is hardly the first ape to attach herself to a feline: A baboon from an Israeli
petting zoo similarly adopted a stray kitten of its own last month.
