Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / January 2007Meerkat Manor--I'm WRECKED
The Goshawk snatched up baby Blossom and carried her off ... presumably to rip her to pieces.

I'd be a terrible person to do that kind of research. I don't think I'd learn much - be too busy running in there trying to save them.

I don't think I understand why you guys watch this show. I think I'm glad I don't have cable. Gulp.

When does it air and what channel is it on? Maybe I'll watch it at my mom's house sometime.

Unlike with Blossom, they don't actually show what happens to Mozart's litter. And if you've been watching the show for a while and have learned a bit about meerkat colonies, it isn't unexpected. Sad, but not a surprise. -yngver > Unlike with Blossom, they don't actually show what happens to Mozart's > litter.

I will never forget that &%$#in hawk flying away with Blossom in its talons a moment after they showed her all dewy-eyed, chomping on bugs. >> >> The Goshawk snatched up baby Blossom and carried her off ... presumably >> >> to rip her to pieces.

I liked the US version but the folks in the UK seem to love Bill Nighy (see http://www.billnighy.info/2006/08/02/meerkat-manor-on-dvd-finally/) But it isn't region free. I have to see about hacking my dvd player to ignore the region codes. I never bothered before but i don't want to screw it up so I can't watch American DVDs. You can get something to watch it on your computer that removes the region block on it http://www.slysoft.com/en/anydvd.html >>> >> >> The Goshawk snatched up baby Blossom and carried her off ... >>> >> >> presumably [quoted text clipped - 28 lines] > ignore the region codes.

I could never understand why someone would want to watch movies on a computer when you can pop it in the VCR or DVD player and watch it on the tele. >>>You can get something to watch it on your computer that removes the >>>region [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > computer when you can pop it in the VCR or DVD player and watch it on > the tele.

A plain old 17" monitor. The TV is 31", old style LowDef. I do have a hi def one but it's 26 inches and is in the computer room. It is really sharp but I still like the 31. It's also more cozy to watch in the living room. My house really isn't big enough for a giant TV. When prices come down some more I might get a bigger one than I have. But then what do I do with this one? >>>>>You can get something to watch it on your computer that removes the >>>>>region [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > some more I might get a bigger one than I have.

I am constantly cleaning the cable > box out so we won't have a meltdown Ours isn't all that big--a 42 inch plasma which is basically just wider than the 32 inch regular tv we used to have (since they measure diagonally) but I don't find it gets all that warm and one nice thing is that it doesn't attract dust and fur. I never have to wipe it off, or at least not so far. One of our cats sits behind it sometimes but I think it's because the old tv was so massive there was no room behind it on the tv stand, and this one of course takes very little space. Makes a good perch and I don't think she realizes we can see her white tail hanging down the side of the stand so she's not really all that hidden. -yngver > Makes a good perch and I don't think she realizes we can see her white > tail hanging down the side of the stand so she's not really all that > hidden. This just kills me. Like the little ears sticking up behind the pillow they are hiding behind. Or, my personal fav: Gracie worms her way up under the quilt I have made the guestroom bed with, so we have this perfectly smooth bed with a cat-sized lump in it. But she thinks she is hidden. :) > > Makes a good perch and I don't think she realizes we can see her white > > tail hanging down the side of the stand so she's not really all that > > hidden. >This just kills me. Like the little ears sticking up behind the pillow they > are [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > cat-sized > lump in it. But she thinks she is hidden. :) One of our cats just really doesn't seem to get the "hiding" concept very well. First off, she never picks a very good place to hide--like behind the sofa, instead of under the bed like our other cats, or as I said, behind the tv with her her tail and paws quite visible. Then if you call her, she meows pitifully as if to say "don't look here! I'm not here!" She doesn't seem to realize that if she meows, it gives away the hiding place. Once when she was semi-hiding behind the tv--I mean, she wasn't seriously hiding because there was nothing like a trip to the vet or a claw-clipping or something worth hiding for imminent--I mentioned her name to my husband and she peeked around the tv to see why we were talking about her, then ducked back except for the tips of her ears showing. She can be a silly cat sometimes. -yngver Suddenly, without warning, kraut exclaimed (09-Jan-07 12:31 AM): >>> You can get something to watch it on your computer that removes the region >>> block on it [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > computer when you can pop it in the VCR or DVD player and watch it on > the tele.

I figure it is good for children to watch. If they are old enough to understand what you saw, then they are ready to learn about the circle of life. your little mouth was too cute telling it. this is just a test. I tried to post a message but it hasnt appeared. I wanted to see if I could answer a message. any ideas why my post hasnt shown up? > > The Goshawk snatched up baby Blossom and carried her off ... presumably to > > rip her to pieces.
