As you see from plan, I have big grounds. We used to have hedge maze based on Cretan Labyrinth at Knossos, but one time Sergei was on way home from working in mansion and lose himself in maze for three days. He was found by gardeners covered in hedge mites. We got rid of maze after that.
MY bathroom is newly refurbed with an Olympics-size swimming pool for my exercisings. My record is 21 lengths (any thing more than that I get cramp in my tail). Is much more tiring than compare meerkats.
Afterwards I have soothing whirly-bath. Sometimes bubbles is not work though because Sergei’s fur moultings is block the bubble pipe. Then we have to call out plumberkat and Sergei hides in his room because he is embarrassment.
HERE I am with my vintage Rolls-Royce before we go for picnic. Sergei very good driver – he can make drive from mansion to front gate in only 25 minutes now.
I have many rooms for sport in my home; here is drawing-room archery. This is where I successfuls shoot a fruit off top of Sergei’s head on only third attempt.

Thank you.

KENDOKAT Miami
Kendokat wields big stick and wears specials designed armour. He look scary but actually is very nice. When not engaging in extreme combat, Kendokat likes picnicking and pedalling boats shaped like swan.
This meerkat can often be found on Miami Beach perfecting squat thrust technique or discussing sunglasses straps with training partner.
BIKERKAT Honolulu
Get your motor running, head out on the highway, Bikerkat is oiled up and ready to ride. Liking nothing better than wind in whiskers and hot tarmac under wheels, Bikerkat once rode 700 miles just to get a burrito.
On lazy days this meerkat love sit under shade of palm tree knitting grass skirt and flower necklace in readiness for nighttime beach Lu’au. During the week he runs a shack selling exotic seashells and boogie boards to tourists.
BALLETKAT Weston-super-Mare
Balletkat is little clumsy round the house but when on stage and in tutu, there is transform into most graceful and elegant creature. Very flexible and able to leap large distances – useful when queuing.
This meerkat goes to Weston-super-Mare to play slot machine and snog stranger outside closed beach bar or stand in middle of gigantic empty car park when feeling sickness of home in Kalahari.
PARTYKAT Bangkok
A 24-hour party animal. If there’s a dance club having a massive dance party, Partykat is surely going to be there with glow sticks, disco pants and spirit of sexiness.

I hope that – Note from Author: Sergei, we have limit space so I will have to stop you there. Apologies. Also, my computermabob will not switch on. Can you have a look?
