What is Koko up to?
Hello...I almost forgot about Koko, WE used to watch videos and look up things about Koko. I found this on a friend's blog. Hope you like it...

Here's a picture of Koko the gorilla playing with her pet kitten, which she called Lipstick, of all names!!! Well, she also called her pet bluejay "Tongue"! Koko was a really cool gorilla; she learned a lot of sign language and lived in a trailer and was even being taught how to read and use a computer and draw scribbly pictures. She also had several pets, including her cats. There was a really funny story behind how she got her first cat. She signed to her trainer, Penny Patterson, that she wanted a cat for Christmas. So Penny got her a toy cat. Koko didn't seem to like the cat at all and she threw it around and tried tearing it apart. She was depressed and sulky for a few days, and then she told Penny that she wanted a real cat! She ended up getting a kitten that she called Smokey, but it got hit by a car, so she got Lipstick, the kitten in the photo.
