As I have mentioned before, my dogs, Punky and Stanley have
a stuffed monkey toy that they love dearly. It is an old stuffed animal of mine
from childhood. They carry it everywhere with them. They take it outside to
pee, they set it down next to them when they eat, and this monkey never leaves
their side. One of the two pups has it at all times. They love the monkey.
However, the monkey has fallen into a sad state of
disrepair. Having a bit of foresight, Jeremy and I knew that it would be a sad
day when that monkey was fully destroyed and we had no replacement. We have
tried to give them similar but different toys, and they have no interest. They only
want their stuffed monkey.
So, I started googling the monkey to see if I could find
another, identical monkey.
And this is when I found out the terrible, unfortunate news.
Well terrible for us, probably great news for other monkey owners in the world.
The dear, beloved monkey toy, is listed as one of the “Most
Expensive Beanie Baby toys in the world”.
Yes, our dear, beloved monkey was worth $4,000. Particularly
rare if the monkey, whose official name is Nana the monkey, has a tan tail. Our
Nana the monkey has a tan tail.
Our Nana the monkey looks like this…
Eyes scratched out. Tail falling off. Entire stuffed animal
filled with dog slobber and who knows what else.
Yes, beloved Nana is the most expensive large beanie baby in
the world. Nana tops out at $4,000. And our dogs have destroyed Nana.
Good thing I really love those dogs.
