We are the Gira family and live in the garden city of Haan. My family comprises my three children Alessandro, Lorenzo and Valentina, not to forget my husband Claudio, and my humble self. My name is Vesna, I am 34 years old and a bit mad about animals. I have had a lot to do with animals since being a child and of course that was how things were to stay when I got married. At present,our tomcat Mazo and our Coons are all part of our family. Well, I've finally found time to describe us in more detail. We are a spirited family, yet my husband is the calming influence in our house, thank goodness. I come from Serbia and my husband comes from Italy. I always say that this mixture should be forbidden, because the result is dynamite, ha ha ha… No, our kids are as sweet as sugar but very, very lively; yet are very sensitive with the animals and are very gentle to them. They've always been like that, I'm glad to say…

This is how we live...
