MeerKat


Maggie and i are looking up animal facts to put on http://www.maggieandsam.com/ animal trivia page, and we came across the Meerkat. Maggie thought it was a cat, but it's not. Can you believe it is a mongoose? Here is something that is interesting; they are immune from the poisons of scorpions and snakes! They like to hang out in groups called mobs, and they can dig as much dirt as their own body weight, in a couple of seconds! Wow, impressive, I would like to call the Meerkat a friend of mine.

I think the Meerkat is kind-of cute. I heard that some people turn them into pets because they cut down on the rodent population. Check out that tail, its pretty skinny!

All About Me

My photo
Jill illustrates greeting cards and works at an Animal Medical Hospital in Arizona. Her love for animals can be seen in every drawing she has ever done. It wasn’t until Jill and her husband Paul adopted Maggie & Sam (2 crazy cats) from the Humane Society that Jill created the Maggie & Sam Collection. All of Maggie and Sam’s personalities as well as their friends have been captured in Jill’s work. In every illustration you will see humor, and love through her characters’ eyes. Jill has been selling her cards in local Arizona Stores. However, being passionate Jill wanted to create a website that would bring people together to talk about their pets, share their stories and to interact with other pet lovers. They will be able to learn new and interesting facts about the various animals pictured on the greeting cards, read their pet’s horoscope, and send personal messages to their friends and families at any time via e-mail.
