Een ietwat excentrieke vrouw en haar steenrijke echtgenoot kunnen maar moeilijk verwerken dat ze geen kinderen kunnen krijgen. In plaats van een kind te adopteren, besluiten ze echter om een aantal chimpansees te kopen en de apen als hun eigen kinderen op te voeden. Bovendien vindt de vrouw ook nog een kleine baby-gorilla. De kleine Buddy wordt al gauw haar favoriete dier.
Nee, helaas is Buddy nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
