I looked up the birthdates of these 3, they were each born in 2002. Here's a quote from someone:
Hello folks,
I've been a meerkat fan since forever -- well, at least since David Attenborough did "Meerkats United" on the BBC (one of my all-time favorite wildlife programmes). Of course I've been watching (and loving) Meerkat Manor, especially since Whiskers was one of the meerkat tribes that I studied when I joined the Earthwatch meerkat project back in 2003. Back then it was Youssarian who was the dominant male, with Flower as dominant female still.
So Youssy was DM in 2003 and all 3 of the mystery kats(besdies Daisy) were born in 2002...I think I found it.
Sounds good youssy, but even now, both Zaphod and Youssarian were Flowers best guys. I do not know about back then. I think that may be one reason no one is really sure. It may take the DNA tests to tell, but that is really great digging and you could be absolutely right. Sounds right anyway
