New Addition to the Family

We are pleased to announce the latest addition to the Tallent household: Kefirah!

Kefirah (ke·fi·RAH) means “little lioness” in Hebrew. We thought that was a fitting name considering her extremely playful attitude. Everything is a toy: hands, feet, tzitzit, babies...

Many thanks to our friends Jonathan and Jessica for rescuing her from the dark, cold streets, nursing her back to health, and allowing us to give her a good home!

You can see some more cute pics of Kefirah in her photo album.

Doesn't kefirah mean heresy?

Gur aryeh means lion cub.

No, it means young lioness. Look at the last blessing in the Birchon, the quote from Tehillim 34:11 -- כְּ֭פִירִים kefirim, masculine plural
