Capuchin & Exotic Animal Safe Haven
CESH NPO 210-908
Giving exotic animals a safe haven.
When the novelty wears off, their lifelong survival begins.
Every year, exotic animals are bought as pets by people who quickly realise they cannot handle their complex needs. At CESH, rescued capuchin and exotic animals receive long-term sanctuary care, daily monitoring, medical support, warmth, food, and safety.
Many of these animals were surrendered because their owners were ill-informed. CESH steps in to give them a second chance — but this care depends on public support.
Featured urgent cause: the winter blanket drive
Blankets & winter care 65%
As winter temperatures drop, sanctuary monkeys face freezing nights and higher daily care costs. Blankets, bedding, cage covers, immune boosters and food are urgently needed.
Help NowWhere your support helps
Real needs. Real care. Real animals.
Medication and monitoring
Some rescued animals need ongoing support, immune boosters, and daily care because of the conditions they came from.
Daily food
High-protein diets, fruit, enrichment food and staple supplies are needed every day, not only during emergencies.
Education matters
Think before you buy a primate.
CESH also exists to educate people before another animal becomes a crisis. The books and video content help explain the lifelong responsibility, behavioural risks, diet, enclosure needs, enrichment, discipline challenges and the harsh truths breeders often do not explain.

The sanctuary need
A safe haven for animals people were not prepared to keep.
Many capuchins arrive at sanctuary care because owners were not fully informed about the reality of primate ownership. As they mature, they can become aggressive, destructive, difficult to manage, and impossible to keep safely in a normal home.
CESH gives these animals structure, food, warmth, medical care, daily monitoring, enrichment, and the chance to live out their lives with dignity.
