Meet Koko's New Kittens




Published on Oct 13, 2015
Koko
got her birthday wish this July 4th — not only did one kitten come to
visit, but a whole litter. Koko fell in love with one, and the other
fell in love with her. Koko has adopted these two kittens into her
family, and it has energized her world.



Not only have Koko's
maternal and play instincts kicked in, but she is signing more to her
caregivers and generating new content everyday that can be used by The
Gorilla Foundation to create empathy fro great apes. This can have
significant benefits to both endangered free-living great apes and those
in captive environments, by encouraging the development of 2-way
communication with their caregivers (which Koko has had since she was a
baby).



The Gorilla Foundation is now considering a multimedia
sequel to the classic book, Koko's Kitten, which has already reached
millions of children worldwide, and has the power to motivate millions
more to learn how to make the world a better place for all of its
conscious inhabitants.
