Our once "wild child" Niyla is now a cuddly beast that enjoys lying right next to us either on the couch or arm chair. From her first days with us where she'd hide or bolt from us, she has really changed. We love her to pieces. She still torments our dog Elly, but that is because she is a true DIVA by every sense of the word. She is a big girl and thus her nickname is "Biggie."
