Euw (Blessed) (?) gained fame for his ability to cure sufferers of long-lasting complaints of the Grippe. While not recognised in the RM, the Blessed Euw is invoked by Christians and others whenever someone near them sneezes.

Felina of Persepolis/Purrsepolis (112) was celebrated as one of the first dedicated virgins to devote her life to the care of animals, notably cats. Her influence after death is credited with the species developing the ability to land on all four feet no matter how they fall. She is also known as the patron saint of bakers, increasing their profits by causing bread to always fall 'butter side down' and thus encouraging their customers to purchase more. In recognition of this, bakers once made little effort to keep small rodents from their storage rooms in order to increase the health and enjoyment of their household cats.
