Raphael's Story: The true tale of an abandoned kitten who found a forever home

Raphael's Story is the true tale of an abandoned kitten who found his forever home. Inspired by the difficult journey of her own cat, Raphael, the author has crafted a complete tale based on the sketchy facts of her cat's life before he came to her. The story of Raphael and those of all the other animals in this book are true. The author uses the journey of the 'little orange kitten' to call attention to several issue related to animal well being in the modern world, such as the plight of feral cats, overpopulation, declawing, cruelty and abandonment. Courville is well known for her historical fact-based fiction and, under the nom de plume of Eugénie D. West, is globally acclaimed for her 'Reporting is Murder'(c) series of murder mysteries. This is the first, and probably only time she has ever written a biography, much less a biography of a cat.
