My story

　　Meet Papa Elf! He came to Tenth Life just before the holidays but is sure to give you Christmas cheer and joy the whole year round. Affectionately known as Papa, this sweet senior boy is healthy, happy, and ready to find his forever family.

　　This tabby cutie is overall pretty perfect! Papa is very calm, quiet, laid back, and just an all around very good and well behaved boy! He has been known to chase a catnip mouse from time to time, but for the most part he is all about the relaxation and lounging next to his person. If you are looking for a companion to binge the latest Netflix series with, Papa would love to volunteer! He does not generally care for being picked up, held, or laying on laps, but you will never doubt his love and adoration. His eyes will light up every time you enter the room and he will always come to greet you.

　　Papa is not very vocal, but he is not shy to speak up when he knows it is time for treats. Temptations are his absolute favorite! Soft food is yucky but please give him all the crunchies! He gets a liquid medicine once a day for his joints/arthritis, but it tastes like candy to him and he looks forward to it every morning!

　　While Papa loves all the people he meets, so far he hasn't been the biggest fan of his fellow felines. It is possible he would do ok with a slow introduction, but he would probably do best as the only cat in the home.

　　Papa would love nothing more than to sit quietly beside you, making biscuits and getting pets, for the remainder of his golden years. Could that person be you? Papa would love to meet you!

　　As of 6/15/23, Papa Elf is looking for a temporary foster for a few weeks while his foster is traveling! Apply at /foster if you're interested in hosting this sweet senior boy.

　　If you have any questions or would like to adopt Papa Elf, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
