Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Patch! This super sweet boy loves affection and being part of the family. Head scratches are the best! I bet he would bring a lot of joy and warmth to everybody around him. He is a great snuggler and he wants to burrow right into your heart! As you can see, I'm a big guy. But, that means I'm a super snuggler. It's my superpower. I might look like an intimidating force, but really, I'm kind of a chicken. I love seeing so many new faces every day, but it's hard for me to muster up the courage to come greet you all at the door. If you want to be my friend, I'd really like that. You'll have to take the first step. Just talk to me a bit - tell me about your day. Talk about the wather. Boost my confidence and tell me how handsome I am or how beautiful my eyes are. I'll soften up, I promise. You can even reach in and touch me. I really, like head rubs. And I love when people scratch my chin. I'm an expert couch buddy, lap sitter, and bed warmer. I'm just looking for a quiet place to call my own. When you take me home, please be patient with me. It's going to take me a bit to get used to my surroundings. I promise that I'm happy to be there.
