If you live in the Palmerdale/Pinson area of Jefferson County, be on the lookout for Cookie.

Andrew Foster’s 4-year-old Capuchin monkey, Cookie, has been missing since yesterday. Foster told WVTM anchor Rick Karle Cookie escaped while her owner was getting ready to change her clothes. At the time of her escape through the front door, Cookie was wearing yellow pants and dragging a leash.

His owner said she’s shy, but fond of grapes, split peas, bread and, especially, Tic-Tacs.

The monkey has been spotted in the Pinson area and police have been alerted. If you see Cookie, call Foster at 205-230-1142 or email him at [email protected].
