Adopt a meerkat
By adopting a meerkat, your money will make a real contribution to the care of our meerkats and our wildlife conservation work.
Our adoptions make a fantastic gift for animal lovers of all ages. Prices start from as little as £35 per year and we have up to three packs to choose from.
Meerkats are small, cat-like carnivores that are part of the mongoose and civets family. These mammals play an important role in maintaining ecological harmony in wilds of the African desert. You can spot our meerkat mob near the lynx and lion exhibits.
How do I adopt a meerkat?
First choose the adoption package you wish to purchase from the options below and then make your animal selection.
Adoptions apply to the species rather than individual animals. This is because some of our animals may move to other zoos as part of breeding programmes. If your adopted species moves, we will advise you and you will be given the opportunity to transfer your adoption to another species.
