If anyone is interested in hearing about my experience with a trip to see the Meerkats please let me know. I went to the Morongo Valley Fellow Earthlings Center last February and it was wonderful. They let you adopt a Meerkat for a small fee of $100.00 which goes for the feeding and caring of these precious little creatures. You cannot take one home with you but you and 3 others can enjoy being with them for 2 hours. Believe me 2 hours is a good amount of time. It was a wonderful experience and one that I will continue to do each year.
