You can talk about it here!

Ahh where to start

This episode was pretty good. a great ending to the season. A sad season, though, it was

I knew episodes ago, that Maybelline wouldn't stay put. She was meant to lead, so she started her own group and seck "the heck with this" to RD

I was so scared for the little pups when they ran into the Zappa though. See how young they were? days old!

Another thing i didn't get was how could Zaphod be let back in after he left AND met a rival Kat. Wouldn't he smell of that one?

I also got astins joke "maybe it's Maybelline" did you? ;p

With 4 groups on each others paws now, it'll be a hard wait to season 4

Thanks Mod-Kelly for finally getting this in here.
I'll post what I posted before regarding this episode:

I gotta say, Hooray for Lola! For saving those pups.
I hate when I have to view the Whiskers as the bad guys.
I only have to wonder if ALL of the pups were saved.

they let zaphod back in because zaphod is zaphod

who is the man?? Zaphod is, he put his family needs before him thats a mans man babe.i will tell you even thought flower is gone let her rip in peace, she should be proud of her daughters rocketdog and mabelline they are very strong minded, did you see maybelline take charge and just overpowered the zappa gang, maybe the zappa gang didnt fight because of there pups but still maybelline did not back down one bit, she was like punk this is my land move on and by the way if you dont know me my name is Maybelline and i am here to stay....

Yes this was a good ending to the season. Both RD and Maybeline are going to do great things next season! I think I got myself confused reading all the chats, I thought something else terrible was going to finish off the season. Lola is great too! I think Sean said all the pups were saved thanks to her. I can't wait for next season!

i just looked at the kmp august report under aztecs they have down monkulus (vwf063)as DF, so i guess maybelline real name is monkulus. things that make you go mmmmmmmmmm..

Yes Monkulus is Mabeline's real name.

Yes, I'm old enough to get the joke of "Maybe it's Maybelline."

And you could see this coming. The Whiskers were too large at 50+. And you had two females fighting for dominance. The answer? Split and each becomes a DF. And that's what happened.

Now we know who the Aztecs are. And I doubt the two factions of Whiskers will reunite, as they did with Flower and Daisy during the temporary split.

I was so happy not to see any deaths at the end of this episode. My heart stopped for a few minutes when the both groups were sizing each other up. I was just praying nothing would happen to either set of pups and thank God that Lola rescued the newborn pups. Go Lola! Gotta love the "maybe it's Maybelline" joke.

Maybelline has proven to be a better leader than Rocket Dog. (Remember how RD ran from the first 'battle', then she decided to fight?)I'm much more impressed w/Maybelline. I wish this season still had a couple of episodes left, so we could see how the Aztecs are doing.
BTW, when does the next season start, so I don't miss anything?

I was impressed with Lola.Saving the pups. Rocketdog is struggling but,I'm sure her great,wonderful leader/mom Flower had it rough the first year of DF.It's a braking in period.I think she will do wonderful. I belive Maybelline will great as DF she seems very tough and strong as her mother was.The Whiskers were getting a little too big.Maybe a split will benifit them.Remember this isn't the first split.However the one is perment unlike the others.I wonder who is collared? Maybelline or the DM.Does anyone know how this is determined who of the two is collared?

I was happy no one died.I'm not sure when the new season starts if it goes anything like this season it'll be Aug-2008. A lonnngggg wait.
We have the movie to look forward to.And all the reruns. I thought it very kind to keep Mozarts name on the line -up on the intro instead of removing her name like she didn't exsist.The same with Flower,her name is still mentioned in the opening ,very cool to remember her in these small ways.

I'm glad the split happened the way it did, dividing into groups of more or less equal sizes will increase the chances of survival for all. The Whiskers group was getting way too large. I can't help but think that if Flower was still alive, the split may have happened anyway only with a smaller "splinter" group that would have had a much more difficult time. I wouldn't want to watch another group go through what the Starksys did.
Thank goodness for Lola taking care of the pups the way she did.

Anyone know which group Mitch is with? I'm a little disappointed they didn't mention all of the major players and who they were with. This is the season finale for Pete's sake. If I'm going to spend some time without the meerkats, I need to know where they are. Oh well, I suppose that's the cliffhanger.

BTW, the more I see of Sophie, the more I like her. She doesn't get the recognition she deserves.

I was so relieved to see the season end the way it did. Lola-you go girl! It was so nice to see her rescue the pups even after Punk took away her DF status. It looks like Lola has some of that caring instinct that Mozart had. I'm really looking forward to season 4. Can't wait to see what is happening with Mitch and Axle.

Really happy to see Rocket Dog still in charge. Wondering where Mitch is and in what group he ended up. Mabelline sure kicked some butt, huh? Sorry the Whiskers had to split, but I knew it was going to happen. So many have passed away this season. So sad. I will forever miss Flower, Carlos, Len & Squiggy and of course our little Mozart. I felt a little like her these past few days...logging on and only viewing what everyone was saying and not being able to reply to anyone. Still having way too much trouble logging in.

Katspirit and Mitch_is_King

I was thinking the same thing about Lola. In her I saw a glimpse of Mozart and am hoping we see more of Lola in season 4. I also agree that Sophie isn't getting the recognition she deserves. Correct me if I am wrong (so many different opinions that I am now getting confused) but I do believe Sophie is Mozart's daughter and I'm hoping she lives up to her Mother's memory.

Missshakespeare

You are right Sophie is the daughter of Mozart and she definitely has her mothers caring ways.

I'm glad that Maybelline decided to split from RD, personally I think that Maybelline would make a better DF. She's tough like Flower yet she has the caring ways of Mozart. No way was she going to let anyone get in her way of looking out for the best interest of her pups.

In some ways I hope they stay split so that Maybelline gets the opportunity to prove herself as DF, yet I'm also worried that the Aztecs will be fighting with the Whiskers for territory and that would've never happened if Flower was still around.
Remember when Flowers group split from the others, not once did they fight for territory with the remaining Whiskers. When they met up for a fight once they recognized each other they chose to snuggle and groom each other instead.
Would that be the case between RD and Maybelline? I don't think so because both females are so determined to be DF of their group.

I tried posting on here last night but I couldn't get a pop up box to reply, and when I did it then triggered me for who knows what.

I hope they get this board fixed because it took me 3 hours yesterday and all afternoon today just to get logged in.

In closing I really didn't like the way the season ended, it really didn't leave you wondering enough to want to tune into season 4.
As I said before I'm on the fence about watching season 4, the only kats I'm interested in are Zaphod, Sophie and Mitch. But I really don't want to watch them die off in season 4. I guess I like so many others need a break from MM, so many needless deaths. I can only wait and see how my emotions check out and see if my heart can take another season of MM.

Meerkata,

I completely agree with you but I know me. As torn as I am now I will not be able to keep from watching next season. We still have Zaphod, Sophie and Mitch to watch over. I just cannot desert them no matter what happens. I learned that from Mozart...you stay with the ones you love regardless of the outcome.

And, I would like to see more of Lola. She also reminds me a little of Mozart and I think she is a good girl even though she is a Zappa.

As for RD and Maybelline, I was sorry so see the Whiskers split but it may be for the best. Flower split them for a while to help the mob survive and ensuring the survival of such a big mob for an inexperienced DM like RD would be very hard. I am rooting for RD and Maybelline as I think they both have the potential of being good in they own way.

Took me most of the day to get on and once I did I have not logged off for fear of not being able to get back on. I have to log off now as I have to work tomorrow and must get some sleep.

You're right Mozart always stood by the side of those in need, irregardless of how they treated her. So I too will stand by Zaphod, Sophie and Mitch, I just pray that none of them will die I don't think, my heart can take any more deaths especially theirs.

I too am afraid to log off for fear of not being able to get back in. This board is what keeps me sane, can you imagine going to a counselor to talk about the feelings that we are experiencing from watching the show. They'd probably lock us up in a nut house.

Well it was nice talking with you tonight so get some sleep and hopefully we'll both be able to get back on tomorrow to talk some more.

Angie aka Meerkata

Meerkata and Missshakespeare, you are both so generous with your words about Mozart, She did always stand by those in need, not matter what. I think that humans could stand to take a lesson of the meerkats. We still need to stand by the meerkats that are left, for they are the future. We have to pray and hope that nothing bad befalls these creatures, for their sake and ours. We have to remember the great quailties of the ones we lost and keep their memory alive.

I think that most of us are scared to log off, seeing as how we are having way to much trouble signing back on ( i know i did). It's nice to have this place to come and talk to people about our love for the meerkats and to be able to lean on each other for the loss of our favorites.

Britni aka Meerkat053

Yes, Lola & Sophie do act caring like Mozart---
Maybelline, her feistiness and independence. even though i'll root for Rocket Dog in a standoff, i do wish good things for Maybelline, too.

I remember Youssarian now, too. He was worried about Flower's pups.

Well, i'll be logging off shortly, and may not get back in--if not, so long fellow meerkat lovers.

I want to thank AP for bringing the Meerkats into my life!!! Even though we lost some of our dearest, I thought Season #3 was a HUGE SUCCESS!!! I will be back for next season...

Are they back next season for sure??

Wow I finally got back in. I was sad to see that mabbie thought that she had to leave the group. I hate to see the family seperated, but with winter coming it's going to be hard for all of them and a large group has such a hard time foraging. I hope that next season has more joy in it and not so much heartache.
