Animal Planet :: Meerkat Manor

Episode Guide :: Season One

Flower Power
Flower, the head of the Whiskers family, gives birth to her latest litter of pups, but when the group heads out for the day's foraging, two young and inexperienced male meerkats are left in charge. The little lads are soon bored and hungry and abandon their duties with dangerous consequences, and family outcast Tosca makes a desperate bid to rejoin the Whiskers.

An Awfully Big Adventure
Flower's litter makes their first steps into the outside world. One adventurous new pup, Columbus, prematurely heads out with the foragers and learns about the harsh way of family life for the Whiskers in the Kalahari. Meanwhile, his less adventurous little siblings spend a normal, quiet pup day back at the burrow with the baby sitters. The next day, the foraging party comes across an owl pellet — a sign that indicates an old enemy is in the area. While sleeping in a tree close to their burrow, they spot a giant eagle owl and must try to sneak back home to safety.

The Calm Before the Storm
Lonely Tosca, the evicted daughter of Flower, is lingering close to the Whiskers, but there's no chance that she'll be allowed to rejoin the gang. Her only chance is to hook up with roving males and start a group of her own. When the rival Lazuli gang heads into the Whiskers' territory, however, it seems that her luck is about to change. Unaware that the Lazuli are in her territory, Flower leads the foragers out, leaving the pups with Shakespeare as their baby sitter. Will Flower and the gang get back in time to save them, or will Shakespeare die trying to defend the pups?
