About Raphael

Meet Raphael from the Ninja Turtle litter. He’s a special guy, still figuring out the world after being semi-feral for some time. Though he enjoys his indoor space and will make himself comfortable, he's not one to trust humans quite yet. Raphael tends to keep his distance and sleeps with one eye open, so he would thrive in a barn cat setup where he can commune with other cats without the constant vigilance required around people. This means finding a patient and experienced adopter who understands his needs is essential. It's helpful to know he does get along with other cats, which could help him become more social in the right environment. If you have the patience to let him come to you, he might just blossom into a loving companion. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
