THIS JUST IN: Mini-Me(erkat)s!

The baby meerkats at West Midland Safari Park’s African Village are one year old now, but here’s what they looked like when they were a bit younger. Look sharp for major yawnage (0:30) and faw-down-go-boom action (0:48)!

    This is, without a doubt and I have no hesitation about saying so, THE greatest amount of cute in one place that I have ever seen. Ever. Hands down, no two ways about it. I really mean this.

    Amends Mike’s description: the “Faw-down-go-boom” ackshon is, specifically,
    “faw-down – BACKWARDS – go-boom” ackshon which increases its power exponentially ….

      I don’t know… I think you’ll have a harder time catching these little morsels, than with a normal puppeh, for instance… :)

    Oh Jebus, those things are the cutest! I love how they can barely walk, such clumsy sweet little babies. Baby meercats might be as cute as sloths (a pretty high bar of cute)! Just sayin’.

    I loof thees. Seriously, my husband always has to drag me away from the meerkat habitat at the NC Zoological park every single time we go there. I could watch them for hours!

    In my hometown (Perth, Australia) they have a special ‘feed-the-meerkats’ gifts certificates for a rather large sum that I have ALWAYS, always coveted but never received…one day I will go and scoop up some baby meers into my pockets and slip out the back door!

    • 6rabbits says:

      Soo…exactly how much money do I need to accumulate to feed prosh bebeh meercats? My mind boggles at the meer *ahem* thought of this! I have a friend who’s visiting Perth next summer. Was already jealous, but now I may just have to sneak into her luggage! ;-)

      • 6rabbits says:
