The Adults
- Ed Brandenburg – the cook – He has a small part as the operator of a sidewalk café where the monkey lands after falling from the kite.
- William Gillespie – the chauffer who chases the monkey and gets squirted with the garden hose. He is tormented by the boys when they continue to pester him while he is changing the tire. When Farina is found hiding under the car, he crawls under the car to retrieve her, but the monkey gets into the driver’s seat, and pulls a lever, which spills oil on the chauffer’s face.
- Helen Gilmore – Caroline Culpepper – Society Reporter for "The Tattler". She shows Mrs. Van Renssalaer an article about a rival socialite's party. Her long haired cat also tangles with the monkey. She is listed by the Internet Movie Data Base and The Lucky Corner as Carlene Culpepper. However, her business card has the name printed as Caroline Culpepper.
- Clara Guiol – Alvira, Mrs. Van Rensselaer’s secretary. She is seen receiving the boys at the mansion and accepting their invitations.

- Charles Stevenson – The Butler at the country estate.

Famous quotes containing the word adults:
“Being offended is the natural consequence of leaving one’s home. I do not like after- shave lotion, adults who roller-skate, children who speak French, or anyone who is unduly tan. I do not, however, go around enacting legislation and putting up signs.”
—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
“In some ways being a parent is like being an anthropologist who is studying a primitive and isolated tribe by living with them.... To understand the beauty of child development, we must shed some of our socialization as adults and learn how to communicate with children on their own terms, just as an anthropologist must learn how to communicate with that primitive tribe.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
