Wasn't it Animal Planet that had a series on these busy little animals a couple of years ago? They live by a whole set of rules that are enforced by the boss cat!
Great pic!

Cheers,

Jo

I love these animals. Many years ago I bought a video of a Smithsonian film on Meerkats and I watched that thing dozens of times. About the 2nd or 3rd time I played it, I noticed that one of my cats was mesmerized by it. That cat sat on it's hind legs (much like this meerkat is doing) and watched the TV. In a box somewhere I have got pictures of it.

Meerkats are SO darn cute. They always seem to be standing still, looking at something nobody else can see.
