What is the name of this animal

Ok, it's driving me crazy and I can't google it because I can't think of what it's called.

It's sort of like a monkey crossed with a sloth, but it has these huge anime-like eyes and almost human fingers.

It's not a lemur.

Any guesses?

No, but thanks for giving me a place to start SOMMS.

When I googled Tarsier, pics popped up of the animal I was thinking of: Loris.

Thanks!

A Lemur?
Either that or Patzeria (oh wait, wrong thread).

These are all so cute! Now I'm going to sit around googling cute animal images all day. Good for the soul, not so good for my billable hours.

Taz! I'd think you'd know by now to come to me with any monkey-related questions!

I know and love Loris! She was great in Mary Tyler Moore show and love her even more in Raising Hope! I love Loris Cleachman!

I knew you'd make an appearance in this thread Joe.

"I love Loris Cleachman!"


I can't stop laughing at this!

Diva--what's going on in your avatar? I thought it was a mid-century lingerie fashion show, but there are too many tuxedo'd men in the seats.

Chanteuse?

Drag show?

It's strangely compelling...

Thanks, Taz! These are melt your heart cute. Every time I watch, a new one is my favorite. I might as well just call it a day now.

And Loris Cleachman is just too funny, Joe.
