Except for one corner, the living room decor of the Harold arubin home in Beachwood, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland is everyting you would expect to find in a finely furnished American home. But that one corner might be in the jungle. It is the private domain of Bongo, a four-month-old monkey. Bongo, who still wears diapers and pride and joy of the family's four children, and even gets along well with the family terrier named Boots. The family were very impressed with Bongo's table manners in a way how it holds a spoon and puts food into his mouth in dainty little bits.Bongo learns easily and Rubins are hoping to be able to dispense with the diaper changing chore in the next couple of months.
