“Dear You! I'm Raphael-of-the-angelic- purrrsonality and the heavenly-green eyes. But you can call me Raphael for short – or even Raph. I'm named for that angel guy and for Saint Raphael too. He's the patron saint of travelers and that's what I used to do. I traveled around my neighborhood, visiting the Inside Kitties through their windows and looking for handouts. Not that the saint guy needed handouts. He probl'y got that manna stuff.”
“Anyway, I'm a pretty mellow, easygoing guy but one day I was traveling and thought, gosh, it's Cold out here. Plus all the food seemed to come from Inside. It seemed like the place to be. So I picked a house where the meals were good and regular and became an Inside Kitty too.”
“At my foster house they said I might be an "old soul" or maybe just "clueless." But I don't get it. I'm a young guy and I like games so I'll have clues soon enough. Right? My favorite game is Wiggle the Wand Toy Under the Rug. I like the plain end of the wand best cuz it zips around under stuff.”
“All of a sudden, I’m here at Feline Rescue. What’s this all about? Where are the wand toys? Food does seem to appear, but I don’t see any humans lying down sleeping. If there are no sleeping humans, who am I going to sleep with? This cat bed? It doesn’t snore. I prefer a quiet place, although I could do with another cat or two with whom to play.”
“I’ve got the cutest little black dot on my nose. I think it’s cute. I think I’m cute. Tell you what I’m looking for: a human or two that I can follow around, one or two who sit down every now and then and make laps in which I can sleep. I’m gentle and kind and very understanding. I’ll tell you stories. I burble more than I meow, but I burble whenever I can. When there's nothing else going on, I like to meditate while I watch the birdies through the windows.”
“Travel on over to Feline Rescue, come on in with your $120, and say simply, ‘Hi! I’m here to meet Raphael. I think I’m his forever person.’ Oh, and bring me some chicken...”
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 human assistant at 651-642-5900 ext. 3. She'll call you back.
