~ MCJ's photos with the keyword: Raphael

Raphael, He often stands with his toes pointed in and it's so cute. I'm looking for a permanent home. I apologize I'm unable to get to flickr or view your photos very often. I miss this. Wishing you all the best for 2017.

She came up to him for a kiss, and he obliged.

Raphael. He's a hot boy. Mercedes looking at him in disgust.

Mercedes on the left. Midnight in front. Raphael behind. Charlie behind Raphael. Matilda in the shed way back, on the left out of the sun on a box. She had been in the sun and she got hot.

He's over 7kg now, 7.3kg in fact. He should be 6kg. I've got a job on my hands to get his weight down. He needs more cuddles, I think that will relax him a bit about not getting as much as he wants. At the moment he sprays if he doesn't get more when he wants more. It's driving me a bit crazy this behaviour. A few of them are doing it, I think a lot of it is because they need more attention.

Got a negative glucose reading in her urine today. Josie came home the day after dropping her off for her radioactive iodine treatment. The vet had glucose in her urine two days in a row and he wanted to send her home and for me to test her urine while she's relaxed and see if there is glucose. If negative then she's likely not pre-diabetic. And then I can take her back for her treatment. He is being very cautious as once she's been given the tablet, if something goes wrong, they can't touch her to help her. She is completely isolated. He thought the glucose could be stress, but he has to rule out pre-diabetes So I brought her home Thursday night. I finally got a urine sample this afternoon (Sunday). Her pH was 7, which is not good. It needs to be 5 or 6 (acidic). This was caused from the stress of the hospital. Tomorrow (Monday) I will contact the vet with the result and discuss taking her back for her treatment. I'm still undecided about taking her back. She came home aggressive and very distressed from her one day there. They hurt her with the testing, they used a needle to extract urine from her bladder. I've never seen Josie aggressive after a vet visit overnight or all day. It's worried me enough to think about pulling out. I've got overnight to thing about it.

Raphael. I've bought my very first smartphone. I needed it for security from these neighbours. I keep it on me all the time. I saved for 12months to buy it, I chose one with a good camera and waited and waited for the price to come down when the newer model came out. It has a good video and high Ram for viewing security cameras when I'm inside. I haven't purchased the cameras yet. The best thing about a smart phone is the ease of capturing things in the moment. I caught this of Raphael in an instant. If I had tried with my normal camera, Raphael would have moved. Two days of having the phone, I got video evidence of the neighbours smoking me out. The video is excellent, clear, precise, and non disputable. If only I had something like this earlier.

His winter fur is growing.

Taken in March. Enjoying the start of Autumn. This is Raphael before his winter lion mane starts to grow.

Screening from the unusual hot Autumn sun.

He thinks he's the King of the Castle!

Mercedes giving Raphael "The Look".

Midnight says "I love you" to Raphael with his tail. I should have posted this on Valentine's Day. Josie beyond. Taken in Jan 28th 2016

Raphael, getting walked in my front yard.

Raphael, checking all the smells since I last took him out the front.

See the look Midnight is giving the dog, he did this all day and the dog ignored him all day Lol.

The dog "Bootsy" ignores him. My cute fluffy kitty that purrs and talks all day looks downright feral and mean...I've never seen him do this LOL!
