Interestingly, the Lazuli are the focus of the documentary Meerkat Madness (2001) whilst this series is mainly seen through the Whiskers' eyes. Flower the Meerkat would have been a pup if even born at the time Meerkat Madness was filmed. However, Youssarian the Meerkat (born c. 1997) and his older brother Zaphod the Meerkat must definitely have been around.
