Corner the Market

or is it: Rounding the meerkat?

Jude is featuring oddities from the zoo for the square challenge this month and today she has a meerkat on display. I have a whole ball of meerkats on offer and if that weren’t odd enough in itself I was wondering why a few years back meerkats were so in fashion. I am not only thinking of Sergei and an Aleksandr of tv fame but of the many meerkat figurines that appeared in first garden centres and then front yards. They have been replaced by llamas if I’m correct. I find these fashions in ornaments odd. What do you think?
