Francoise was very ill that year. She was 85 and her heart was failing.
She had t o stay at home a lot. A friend suggested she get a kitten.
A kitten - so much fun.
The kitten was tiny to begin with, but already full of life and mischief.
ZonZon.
It was soon clear this was ZonZon the Bold, ZonZon the Fearless -
Plant Killer, Climber. ZonZon was more than Francoise had bargained for -
so ZonZon spent a lot of time in the sunroom,
where she could do less damage.
It was not an easy time for Francoise. Much fatigue.
Some time in the hospital.
One day her life ended.
ZonZon was 5 months old.
****
It was clear where ZonZon would go. Francoise was my partner's mother -
and Francoise knew that, if anything happened to her,
we would take the kitten. It wasn't something we ever talked about -
but it was something she totally knew.
We already had about 8 cats at that time, but yes,
of course ZonZon would have a home with us.
****
The move from Francoise's quiet home was easier for ZonZon
than for the other cats. She was a kitten. The others were all
grown-up cats, quieter, a little set in their ways.
They hissed when she play attacked -
all except one cat.
It's with ZonZon the Bold that I first noticed Persia's special nature.
Persia was an adult male - quiet yet strong. Somehow or other,
he didn't stand out for me.
I had named him Persia the Hunter when he was a kitten - he hunted
sunbeams, flies, scraps of paper - anything that moved.
With ZonZon, Persia the Hunter became Persia the Social Worker.
Persia played with ZonZon for hours, let her pounce again and again.
He would roll on his back, let her chew his ears. He would let her chase him,
and when he chased back, he would do it gently. He would pounce,
but never using his full strength.
I sometimes called him Uncle Persia - he was like a good uncle to ZonZon.
He clearly was happy when she finally got tired,
but he was always patient with her, let her play all she liked.
****
Now ZonZon herself is a grown cat, still full of life, still a little extra close
to Persia. She still roughhouses with him - and he still lets her,
and never hits hard, though he's still bigger than she is.
Seeing Persia with ZonZon made me notice Persia's caring about others -
most of all, about Madame the Neurotic.
