Pinky Janota, who has been running rescue sanctuary Settlers Pond Shelter in Illinois for 18 years, lives at home with six monkeys, which wear nappies, play with iPads and eat in highchairs, just like real kids. /CFP Photo

The 53-year-old woman owns three rescued Rhesus macaques, one bonnet macaque and two Marmosets, and they’re all named after makeup brands including Maybelline, L’Oreal and Avon. /CFP Photo

Pinky spends her days teaching her monkey kids sign language, feeding them in highchairs, changing their nappies, bottle-feeding them and bathing them. /CFP Photo
