This little monkey was 25 cents, he came from a yard sale a few weeks ago. I think some collectors call this ceramic treatment “popcorn”, but I think it looks more like grits.
His flower is an earring holder thing that is totally impractical.

So cute. I love all the nubby little popcorn fur. I wasn’t sure he was a monkey at first but the more I look at him I guess he is. I love the little flower pinned on his chest. We should all be this happy.
(The AWMOK Jungle Animal Petting Zoo is a scenic attraction whose cages are currently being filled to coincide with the release of the upcoming Pomplamoose with Allee Willis “Jungle Animal” VideoSong and online music game and contest. Jungle tamer, AWMOK creator, curator and charming hostess, Allee Willis, me, will be steadily leading jungle animals to their cages over the next 1-2 months or so as you bring them here until the song is released. If ever there ever was a category that was primed to be kitschified it’s that of “Jungle Animal” as all the stripes, spots and fur have been inspiration for designers since the beginning of time. I thank you all in advance for placing your jungle pets in such an illustrious cage as The Allee Willis Museum of Kitsch. Keep them coming!)

Thanks! He came to me with a matching popcorn fur kitty cat, which I’ll have to post as well.
