Ziva, the diva

Ziva finds some sunshine on the staircase at the Ranzenhaus.

It's been kind of challenging to get photos of the newest resident of the Ranzenhaus - Ziva. She's almost 6 months old, and came to us just after Christmas.
Ziva is a rescue cat from Clare County. We're not quite sure of her heritage, but we're pretty sure she's going to be a big, big cat.

A chair makes a good place to perch to keep an eye on those predators with whom she shares the house.

 Yes, she's spayed, has her shots, is microchipped, yada, yada, yada. Of course. Now, she's had to get used to being around those boys who already lived here. And they've had to get used to her. The Siamese, of course, are standoffish, and not sure she has the right heritage. Gus tolerates her. She totally adores him, and emulates his every move. Gus is a lot older than this high energy girl. She rarely sits still for more than a few seconds. Gus just sits, watches, and waits for dinner to appear.

She contemplates life as a pampered, indoor kitty.

 Ziva seems to have the dinner part down. And the stay warm part. And the find-the-sunshine part.

This might not be a bad life after all.

 Not a bad family to join. Not bad at all.
