And though they are only 28-days old, brother and sister Zanzibar and Nairobi are already a huge hit with visitors to Taronga Zoo, in Sydney.
They are the latest additions to the site's meerkat manor - and are the first pups to be born there for nine years.

So darn cute! I loved that program on TV “Meerkat Manor.” Much better to watch than anything else.

Cat foodSigh. Sarcasm is a fine thing, in its place, but it sure does get old fast sometimes.

Well, they are cute. I wonder if they would chew your hand off once they got older, though... LOL...

Awww. I agree. They are very cute.
But then again most baby animals are. Baby chimps are really cute until they reach 200 pounds, pass puberty and decide to chew your friend’s face off.
