I Am The Reason for Feline Rescue

“Come in! Come in! I know you’re there, and I would like to know you – and know your people-ness – your human-ness.  I am the reason for Feline Rescue. I am Miss Electra. I am as sweet and innocent as a girl can be. I’m less than two years old, and I am hoping for all nine of my lives because there is so much to sniff and study and play with in this world that I will need all nine to do all that I hope to do."

“Without Feline Rescue – or people just like these people, I wouldn’t have a chance. You see, I’m playful and cute and all the things a cat can be – but – I am blind – born with tiny eyes that don’t work – and I picked up the FIV, very possibly from my mom. So come carefully to me because I won’t see you coming. If you want to hold me, I’d like it, but it scares me when I’m picked up because I can’t see where I’m going – or with whom – or why. What if you’re not a kind and friendly person – but a grizzly bear? I’ll smell you carefully – one whiff of bear-ness, and I’ll be leaving.”

“I’m a little black and white girl, more black than white, so I’m told. Not sure what black and white are, but people tell me they are colors that look good on a small cat. I wash myself thoroughly and carefully because I can’t be sure when I’m clean. Better to clean too much than too little – I certainly don’t want to smell like a bear!”  

“Yes, I move around just fine, and I play with toys. I even jump to moving toys. I feel the motion, and my feet are fast. I use my nose and my whiskers and my feet and got myself through a good year of life on my own. So I’m quite well self-taught – and pleased to be so. I love to be petted. When you pet me, I know I’m with friends. It is good.”

“No I don’t have a white cane – just white feet. And, no, I don’t have a service dog, either. But the idea of a tiny girl cat being guided around by a big old chocolate lab does amuse me. Maybe I could just ride on his back! That’s Miss Electra’s story – all of the truth that there is. Now that I’m sure you’re not a bear – definitely kind human scents coming from you, how about adopting me? I’m available for only $120. I’m kind and clean and loving – just as a cat should be.”

PS: If you'd like to know more about me, just stop in at the Adoption Center to meet me or leave a message for my secretary at 651-642-5900 ext. 3. She'll call you back.
