After Mourning the Loss of Her Cat, This Gorilla Decides It's Time to Adopt Again... Aww!

A kitten and a gorilla are facing each other, with text encouraging donations to help save species.

Koko the Gorilla was beyond excited when she realized that she would be getting a visit from a litter of kittens for her birthday.

What she didn’t know at the time was that she would be keeping not one, but two of these sibling kittens as her new companions! Koko instantly fell in love with a little gray kitten while a little black and gold one fell in love with her.

With Koko’s new kitten adoptions, she couldn't be happier (she is signing more than ever). These kittens allow Koko to demonstrate her maternal capabilities, showing that she can raise a gorilla baby — and foster an ambassador for the next generation!
