My Mom had many many kittens born under her house in the days before she began having us all "fixed". Dr. Sally says I am a Flame Siamese.....I am a creamy color with shades of orange and my face has very light tabby markings (kind of tabby and something) . My fur is like rabbit fur......very soft....this is what Mom says of course.
So, she grabbed me up at a young age before my birth mother could take me away. I was very young and had some problems. So many that I spent alot of my early life at the vets. I began to cost alot of money, but Mom didn't care, thank goodness....she wanted me to have a chance.
She was going to call me Newman....her last name (the name she called her dear departed husband)..... and the techs at the vets office laughed and said I should be called Neiman, as in Neiman Marcus....expensive!
Recently I was doing some digging for a research paper for college and came across this excerpt from an article by a researcher. Sorry, since I went to so many site for information, I don't remember which site it was or who the researcher was, but it is interesting. BTW, I did not take this off any forum site. If this is posted on another forum site I never copied it off from there.This was on a web site.
" Also, knowing that Shakespeare wasn't babysitting that day, look at the DVD(if you have it) and you'll see it was a female babysitter that day. Since they didn't find a body, the babysitter probably survived the attack. The most likely thing that happened is Shakespeare left the mob to start a group of his own. Note: None of us know what really happened, I don't know if this is true, and we'll probably never know what happened. But remember, we probably won't find out by aimlessly starting topics like "I SAW SHAKES IN MY TOAST!". I hope this helps for some people.
Hmmm... Looks like the researcher agrees it was a female at the burrow too.

If I remember right, Sophie is Mozart's pup and since Mozart is Zaphod's daughter, then Sophie would be Zaphod' niece, so no Zaphod cannot mate with his niece. That wouldn't be right.
Eruth, we do not know for sure if Mozart is Zaphod's child. And, yes, what may be not right for humans can be right for meerkats, as Eleusine's mate was her nephew Dante.
We may never know who is whom's until the KMP site post a family tree, but I am pretty sure Mozart is Zaphod's daughter. I do know about Eleusine's mating with her nephew, Dante. I guess that can happen in the Meerkat world.
Also sophie has a different bloodline, she is carlos's dauther, it his genes mix with mozart's that made Sophie, spud and poor sparkle that may be the next queen, Sophie, she is very motherly and would make a great queen
I love to wach a good Millaped buffet all the time,I don't think you are crazy,but if there are 42 meerkats it couldn't be that Youssie is Shakes. P.S. Sorry about calling u guys crazy...
I ask mod-kelly if she would reopen this thread. I ask her last year if I could make the thread because people were making threads asking the same questions over and over and I thought it would be nice to have a thread where we can ask questions about the Meerkats and have information about them.
To all of you who are wondering when season 4 of MM begins, I have heard rumors of June 2008, but not sure. Also the movie is suppose to be out sometime this year. Again I have heard rumors of Spring 2008, but not sure of it. I hope it comes out soon. I am tired of this waiting.
There are 2 movies coming out this year, one about Flower, and one about another Meerkat group, which one is the one you heard will come out this summer? I heard the Flower movie will air in October, and the other Meerkat movie should have aired last month.
It has been posted on the thread, "Ask a Researcher," that the movie, Queen of the Kalahari will be out just before season 4 premeres in June. Start looking for any new signs of Pronkering around the end of May.
We're all waiting for season 4, and i can't wait! I sure hope Shakespear is alive and well because he was my favorite meerkat. What's up with Youssarian, what's he doing and where is he now?
