One early morning, as I began to feed my feral colony, I heard a new voice. A hungry, frightened voice. And over in the tall weeds, stood Raffles. Initially, from afar, I thought he might be Persian. The tail!! But he is a medium haired regular beauty, with a heart to match. He ate and ate and was very grateful. I could see a collar mark and later learned his story from another feeder in the area. Raffles' human had him in a hotel room that didn't allow cats. And instead of changing hotels, she kicked him out and stayed in the room. Later, the other feeder saw her call to him a few times, then hop in her car and drive off. He has been living in tall grass and weeds for 3-4 months. He calmed down quickly and is very busy eating like a hog and making up for starvation and great fear. Raffles will be a stunning companion. He is sweet, loving and silly. His tail is the stuff of cartoons. And he already is soft as a bunny! I would guess him to be around two, so he will grow and certainly fill out for awhile. He has a great personality and I felt he was close to giving up. But, food and love are the miracles he needed. Please consider Raffles as a forever friend. I think he would be great with any situation and family size, but you must give him space and time to decompress from the abandonment. He has been through so very much. Thank you for your heartfelt consideration. He sure deserves it! Please contact Sandi 512-779-3278, Copperas Cove. Minimum donation of $120 applies representing a portion of the cost of his veterinary care and food.

More about this rescue
We are primarily a feral or stray cat rescue organization, dedicated to ending the killing of feral cats by local animal controls and shelters. This is accomplished by reducing the number of cats using TNRM (trap, neuter, vaccinate, return, maintain) methods. In the process, some abandoned stray friendly cats and many kittens come into our system who need homes. We are not a shelter, so these are all fostered in our homes, making them really special cats. Volunteers are always needed for trapping, feeding colonies, education, and fostering. Call (512) 709-7020. And of course, donations are always welcome.
