The rest of the meerkat gang popped up as if they would attack Lucas, but instead they just watched as he raced after a small one that had edged away from the main burrows. It must have been sick or socially ostracized because it didn't put up much of a fight. Lucas easily trapped it in his coat. This was going to be the best souvenir ever!

"Of course it's a cat!" Lucas told the ticketing agent at the airport. On the last day in Africa he had tracked down a cat carrier.

"Strangest cat I ever saw," the agent replied in her thick African accent. She looked skeptical but eventually shrugged and moved the cat carrier on board.
