Meerkat Mystery 🧐🐾
Every now and then, Mom and Dad sit together at the big desk to talk about “website updates.” (That’s hooman-speak for staring at the glowing box and clicking a lot.) I usually nap on my comfy pad while they do their thing. Gotta let the hoomans feel productive, right?
But when Mom wheels her chair over to Dad’s computer, I know it’s serious business time. So, of course, I get up, squeeze myself right between them, and watch the screen, too. I mean, somebody’s gotta make sure they’re doing it right.
Yesterday, after the meeting ended, the screen went dark… and then—boom!—two fuzzy creatures popped up. Long necks, tiny faces, and standing straight up like me when I smell bacon. Mom called them “meerkats.”
I froze. They froze. We stared at each other. Ten whole minutes of mutual fascination. I couldn’t look away. Were they dogs? Cats? Ferrets with better posture? Who knows! But they were definitely up to something.
Mom took a picture of me standing in front of the screen, nose almost touching those suspicious little critters. I’m pretty sure I could take them—if I could just figure out how to get inside the computer.
Until then, I’ll be keeping an eye out. The meerkats might be watching me now. 👀🐶
