Kalikat,
Congrats on your win, I know you'll love the FKMP membership
It's Codyferret's turn for the next question, so we'll be waiting for her post.

Good Morning Squirrellygirly!

Thank you,thank you, I am so looking forward to learning more about our precious kats...It's a dream come true for me and I'm very grateful for the opportunity.
Still counting down to Meerkat Manor: TSB, the new Season 4 of MM, and my newest adventure on the 30th I will be going with my grandson on a field trip to our local zoo where they have our little scurries...Wooo-hoo! I think I'm going to burst at the seams

Have a wonderful day,
KaliKat

Sorry this took so long, but here it is:

What day was the FKMP offically launched and who were the first three members? (the "big 3" don't count as members)

November 23, 2007 FKMP was laucnched. First 3 members were Missing_Tosca, Java954, and Yllohc.

Cody you must be physic, I was going to use that question on Meerkat Jeopardy the next time I won

Congrats Kailkat on your win!!!

Squirrellygirly-Great minds think alike! Now that school is out I should go over to the jeopardy game. I love games.

Will wait for your next question!
Have a great evening!

Hi everybody! New question:

What meerkat is the name of an Irish ballard by James Clarence Mangan?

Good morning Squirrellygirly-

That would be.....VDF112-Dark Rosaleen.

Good question. I learned something new today!

That's correct! Sorry it took me so long, I was in Buffalo N.Y. for the holiday weekend.

It's fascinating finding out the source of some of the more unusual meerkat names

Here's a new question!

In what year did Sean Astin lead 38 floats in the Mardi Gras Bacchus parade and who was his predecessor?

I hope it's ok to post this kind of question. It is Meerkat Manor related. (Kind of.)

I think it's 2005, with fellow Lord of the Rings star Elijah Wood the year before.
I loved Sean Astin in Lord of the Rings

That's right. I thought maybe this would be a little more difficult. Must hang my head in shame. My questions are always too easy.

No, it wasn't easy! I had to dig pretty deep for that one

Here's a new question for everyone, don't be shy to answer if you know it: Which current Dominant female in the KMP has been dominant the longest?

I would love to try and answer this, but only have the last years information as far as the life history data. There a a few Dominants that have been in charge for the same period. If this counts they are:

Commandoes; VGGF012 - Zorilla
Drie Doring; VDF089 - Makonkie
Elveera; VEF079 - Jo Jo Hello
Frisky; VFF121 - Bootle
Lazuli; VLF094 - Aretha
Moomins; VLF055 - Grumpy

That's all I have.

Grumpy Moomins/Lazuli.

You're right Rocket Dog Whiskers!!!!!!!!!!!!! Grumpy has been dominant the longest.

You get to ask the next question

Titus,
If you look under "Meerkat Groups", there is a short history of each group that tells when the latest dominant came to power.

Squirrellygirly, thanks for the info..can't say I didn't give it a Meerkat try. Hope you have a great day. I'll try again!

Yay! Let's see... what to ask... I know!

Who were the members of the Vivian roving coalition that took over the Whiskers?

Am is it zaphod, yousarrian,and izit?

There were a few more than that.

Good evening!

Great question!

The original coalition consisted of: Bazil, Izit, Zaphod, Yossarian, Genghis, Alexander, Govinda and Phooey. Atilla, Patos and Zazu joined soon after.

You're right codyferret(curses, foiled again...)!

Good morning!

How many pups were born during the last breeding season (November to April) and why is this number sginificant?

184? It's significant because usually meerkats don't have that many pups in a breeding season?? Just a wild guess.

I reread the latest newsletter from the KMP which says there was 105 pups born last season, a record amount Hurray for pups!!!!!!!
