'It started by her joining me at a market and the public just couldn't take her eyes off her and kept asking to have their picture taken with Mattie.
'She loves kids and is great at sitting on their laps for a picture. She will give you a high five, a kiss, shake your hand and play ball.
'She can't wait to get dressed up, her favourite outfit is definitely the pirate.'
Mattie spent the first 13 years of her life living with an elderly couple before joining the Welch family.

Julie said: 'I would never recommend people dress their monkeys in costumes, but they are all individually made to their sizes from safe materials and are comfortable.
'They don't harm the animals, quite often they need nappies when being kept in domestic environments so it's for practical reasons, they also help to keep them warm in the winter.
'But a lot of owners want to treat their pets and make them look glamorous so whatever they request I can make for them.'
