Aaron Benitez faced numerous challenges during his early years, but his artistic abilities and imaginative flair have propelled him to fame. He has gained widespread recognition for his innovative use of his pet cat, Prince Michael, in his visual effects work. In his latest project, Aaron’s adorable feline companion takes on the role of Phil the cat, who was the last kitten available for adoption at the Clearwater Animal Rescue Adoption booth.
A little kitten and a family of mice were great pals when it came to finding food. However, their friendship was put to the test when they were chased by a human. The kitten tried to follow the mice into their hole, but since he was too big, he couldn’t fit in, and this made him feel sad. In an attempt to cheer him up, his adoptive mother threw him a birthday party to celebrate their bond. Sadly, the banner inscribed with “fake son” did not make him happy, and he felt heartbroken, which led him to leave home feeling lonely.
Thankfully, the kitten found a new home at a golf course where the caretaker had another cat working for him. Both cats shared the responsibility of daily chores, and soon, the kitten became good friends with the caretaker. He was grateful for his new home and wanted to show his gratitude to his favorite human. Therefore, he began to think of ways to do something special for him.
When Phil was given the task of eliminating the mice that had made a home on the golf course, he stumbled upon a tiny family of rodents. The mother mouse seemed to be missing her offspring and Phil felt a pang of empathy towards them. Rather than resorting to lethal means, Phil decided to extend a helping hand. He carefully placed the family in a box which he attached to gas-filled balloons. To his delight, the mice family soared into the sky. However, their joyride was short-lived as a cat took a swipe at the balloon string causing the box to plummet into the lake. Phil was crestfallen, thinking the worst had happened, but to his amazement, the little ones held onto the balloons and flew away to safety. The feline, unable to remain on the golf course any longer, jumped onto a truck headed for California. Despite this, the mice family made a promise to search for the mischievous cat.
