About Raquel

Raquel is a shimmery black Bombay mix with an easy, silky short coat. She moves with a quiet, elegant confidence—skittish at first, but that fades as she warms up to patient people. Those big golden eyes take everything in, curious and affectionate, and once she chooses someone, she shows her love in gentle, devoted ways. Her play style is delicate—a little hop, a soft pat, like she's keeping rhythm only she hears. She is content to settle in quietly when she’s tired, purring softly while she makes biscuits next to you. Raquel’s sweetness is honest, not showy—she asks for affection but never demands it, preferring gentle hands and a soft voice. She’s house trained and vaccinated, spayed, and her new family can expect a calm, loving companion. If you take the time to let her settle in, she’ll become your most loyal little shadow.
