Meerkats

[New Seeker]

Does anyone know how many years a meerkat lives?

(mine is playing havoc with my furniture)

[tiggerblue10]

Around 12-14 years apparantly. How old is your meekat? Lol

[New Seeker]

43

10 - 14 years - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meerkat

You should let the Guinness book of records know about that New Seeker! ;-)

[New Seeker]

Good idea!

[Androcles]

Says a lot about this lifestyle with a sufficient amount of wildlife living in his furniture to keep meerkats alive!

[New Seeker]

My meekat enjoys a diet of Nesquick and toast, thank you very much!

[tiggerblue10]

After 7 or 8 they are dog food fodder.

[New Seeker]

Do they? What, even with a bit of Thousand Island Dressing?

[Androcles]

Better made into Mushroom Meerkatsup!

You're kidding, aren't you???

Just found this post - I never knew you could have a meerkat as a pet.

I only have Mere-cats, but I might try and swap them for Meerkats at the wildlife centre.

Mmmmmm...someones answers are missing from this thread. The 7 or 8 reference from me was made after someone else 7 or 8 post.
