Pockets is a [|white-capped Capuchin], born sometime in 1992 and most likely in British Columbia, Canada, is known for his hand paintings. Also known as Pockets Warhol, he began painting in 2003 and has sold over 35 painting world wide.

Previous home details: Pockets was a well-loved and well-cared-for pet in British Columbia. He had generous space, a good diet, access to TV and even a pet guinea pig! His owner searched for a safe environment for Pockets' retirement, and located SBFPS. She flew herself and Pockets to Ontario, saw him safely settled in his new home and keeps in regular contact with the Farm.

Condition upon arrival: Pockets was in very good condition upon arrival - it did not take long for him to settle in to his new home.

Progress: Pockets continues to be an active and expressive resident. He has become well known as a painter, having had several shows and sold many canvasses. He is mischievous, always waiting for someone not paying attention to get within the reach of his long arms or strong tail. He is quick, always on the move...and very smart!

Personality Traits: Pockets will take advantage of any mistake that a human might make - so his cage has to be well secured...if he can figure out how to open the door, he will. He loves to play and interact with his caregivers - painting, playing ball, just about any activity that involves two. He also likes a gentle scratch from time to time, or to have his tailed gently petted.

Favourite Activity: Painting (he is famous as Pockets Warhol and his paintings are available on-line!), playing ball, teasing his neighbour Cheeko.

Favourite Food: Pockets loves all the fruits that appear in his dinner. And he likes the occasional gummy bear too! Wish list from staff: More painting supplies - big canvasses, non-toxic kids' paint, small soft quilts.
