Whiskers[]
Spud(VWM078) was born on September 27, 2004, in the Whiskers. His mother was Mozart, a subordinate female, and his father was Pantouffle, a rover from the Vivian. His litter-mates were Tina Sparkle(VWF076), VWF077, and VWM079. His sister VWF077 died during a burrow move instigated by his uncle Yossarian. The other pups survived the burrow move and started foraging with the adults. Since he was not the dominant female's pup, he and his siblings weren't the the center of attention. His brother VWM079 disappeared when the pups started foraging, leaving only Tina Sparkle and Spud alive. Both of them survived to adulthood. Spud's mother gave birth to a new litter on February 24, 2006, to Karim, Ju Drop, Miss Lilly The Pink, and Wollow. His mother was evicted with most of the oldest females. Spud became one of the oldest males in the group, but he didn't ever take dominance. The position of dominant male was taken by Zarathustra when Flower died and Zaphod left. Spud lived in the Whiskers for two years before he left to rove by himself. He was Last Seen on June 22, 2007.
Meerkat Manor[]
Spud was first seen as a pup in Mozart's litter on Meerkat Manor. His sister Tina Sparkle played Sophie. They were born a few weeks after Flower's litter and around the same time as Tosca's(Baddiel) litter. Spud and his litter-mates survived the first burrow move by Yossarian, thanks to Pookie returning the pups to the burrow. A little later Yossarian instigated a second burrow move which was successful. When the babysitters ran into the foraging party, Yossarian dropped Spud's sister. She wasn't found by the family and later died. Spud's other brother simply disappeared from mention and had no role on the show. Throughout the rest of season 1 and most of season 2 Spud was seen as a regular babysitter with his sister Sophie. The pair allowed their mother Mozart to return to the group following her eviction. But after this Spud was no longer mentioned on the show.
