My family and I purchased a female Kinkajou from Courtney Walker Cortina-Pineda at Simply Exotics on 12-3-10. We were told this female Kinkajou was healthy, had all necessary vaccines, preventatives and had been at her facility for several months where she was housed outside with her other Kinkajous. On arrival the Kinkajou was in a carrier, we were not invited to the facility but did ask if we could come. Courtney said she preferred to meet us somewhere and once we arrived at the meeting place she rushed us and offered no health certificate. We should have taken this as a red flag but we were so excited about our new addition and are not educated in the exotic animal trade. We were defiantly taken advantage of. When we got her home we immediately noticed she was thin and acted lethargic. We immediately took her to a knowledgeable exotic veterinarian where we found a long list of severe health problems.
