Tina Sparkle Whiskers, also known as Sophie on Meerkat Manor, was the daughther of Mozart Whiskers, a surviving pup of her first litter, and the longest known lived of her siblings. (Spud had disappeared off study range while roving, her sister Sophie was lost as young pup). She was last seen pregnant, traveling the edge of the Kuruman river reserve.
Life in the Whiskers
Tina Sparkle Whiskers was born in the Whiskers Mob. Her mother was Mozart Whiskers and her father was roving male. She was born in a litter of four pups. Her two other littermates died and only her brother Spud Whiskers survived to adulthood in the Whiskers. She was born on the 27th September 2004. Her mother Mozart was evicted twice or more times from the Whiskers before. She witnessed her mother being evicted permanently from the Whiskers and formed the Starsky. Tina Sparkle stayed in the Whiskers until she left with one of the Whiskers males named Suggs Whiskers. They joined a semi-wild group.
Life in the Hoax
The semi- wild group was called the Hoax. There were other meerkats in the mob. Tina Sparkle did not become dominant in the group. Mau Mau(VHXF001) took the position of dominant female. Caravaggio Hoax took dominant male position. The group did have any surviving litters and the males soon left the group. Mau Mau the alpha female was probably predated or died from disease. Suggs went roving with some of the males. Tina Sparkle was the last member of the Hoax group and was heavily pregnant when last seen. If the group would have still been around the they would have expanded with the addition of her pups.
