Sinbad

Before Sinbad and his buddy Saphire came to Stichting AAP, their lives didn't look very bright. Sinbad was kept as a pet by a German private individual, together with a number of other monkeys. When the owner finally realized that they were not suitable pets, he asked for the help of the German animal protection. But for one of the animals his insight came too late, this monkey died of the consequences of wrong food. Fortunately the story of Sinbad and Saphire ended differently! They now get a hopeful new home in De Zonnegloed in a new spacious and adapted stay. Surrounded with the attention and care they deserve after a life of misery.
