As you may have gathered from the new title of our blog, as well as from the picture above, we have a new addition to our home: Zora. So named after one of our favorite authors, Zora Neale Hurston.We've owned her for about 45 minutes as of this posting. After filling out paperwork for the Heartland Humane Society, we scheduled an appointment to have "Zora" brought over to our house. A woman from the shelter came, as did the foster mom of Zora.
It was quite a treat to watch Zora explore the house with Flannery following right along beside her. There was no hissing whatsoever. We couldn't believe how well they were getting along. Right now as I'm writing this, they've started to play with each other a little. We haven't seen Flannery move this much in a LONG time. They've batted at each other a little, but that's to be expected.
Because Zora is only 4 months old, she's in that rambuctious kitten stage and is already testing limits. I can hear the two of them tearing around upstairs right above me--Flannery's gonna be a little bit thinner in the coming weeks and months.
