Any animal as intelligent as a monkey will get an 'attitude', but I don't really think it's a problem as long as you have enough time to devote to them. They're usually just showing you how smart they are!

Maybe I'm exagerating some, my aunt's monkey wasn't horribly mean, really it was only one incident. But I was little and it kind of stuck in my mind.
Every time my mom would go to my aunts house, she would bring the monkey (Cole was his name by the way) a piece of fruit. She left one morning and didn't bring fruit with her because she was out. Cole went up to my mom, looked in her hands for the fruit, and when he saw she did not bring him any, he bit her on the back of her hand.
They castrated the goats without drugs?!!?! :O how barbaric!!! :mad:
I believe so. :( :( :( :( I'm not 100% sure, we had to stay in the waiting room, and you could hear them "bleeting" in the other room. Like I said, I am not 100% sure- but I don't think they did.Quote:

No they don't give them pain meds or anesthatize them ether. The same thing goes for dehorning, it is discusting, but unfortunately when you are a vet student those are the things you have to learn. :(
Wolfchan-You are absoulutly right! Luckily I spend most of my time with my little guys and I'm not worried that much when maturity comes.
RogueFerret- Monkeys are like that. It's kinda like if you give a kid a peice of candy everyday and one day you're out they'll be naturally upset.

Excuse my dumbness but what does castrated mean?
