London, May 18 (ANI): Justin Bieber has been hit with a hefty bill by the quarantine centre caring for his pet monkey.
The 19-year-old singer has been ordered to pay thousands of pounds for care, food and vet visits to the baby primate- Mally, the Sun reported.
Bieber has until midnight to claim the monkey, which was detained by German customs on March 28 when the singer failed to produce the necessary paperwork for it.
According to the Munich Animal Protection Centre, the pop sensation's management company told the shelter to dump 20-week-old Mally at a local zoo.
But customs say they have yet to receive a formal request to do so, either from the 'Baby' singer or an authorised representative.
Meanwhile, Centre spokesman Judith Brettmeister said: "Mally is lonely. He could suffer serious psychological problems if he doesn't start living with other capuchin monkeys soon."
The abandoned monkey's only companions in his 10ft-by-16ft room at the shelter are his carer Conrad Dressler, 29, and an old teddy that Bieber gave him to play with. (ANI)
