9/26/20: Hi everyone! Elmer here! I have all sorts of things to share with you. My life has changed so much since coming to my foster home and I now know what real love feels like and I give it back to my foster mom and foster fur sissy all day everyday. I love to just be loved. Recently I started reaching up to foster mom and giving her my paw...you see I really surprised her because she didn’t even ask, I just did it. I have lots of things I know how to do, and she now knows at one point in my life someone taught me these things. I have a foster fur sister here and she is the same age as me. We both like to sleep all day while foster mom works and recently me and my foster sissy shared a bed and cuddled! Foster mom seemed really happy and started taking tons of pictures and we just kept snuggling and sleeping. I love being with foster mom and my foster sissy so I would love to have both in a forever family if possible. Even though I’m a mature older gentleman, I have great potty manners even when foster mom works long days. I ALWAYS potty outside. I love to eat, I really enjoy any treat you give me, but I really like turkey and cheese. Oh...I almost forgot! Foster mom invited me on the couch and into the bed the other night and I jumped right up and love it! You know where I’m sleeping now! I went to this scary place called the vet the other day and I got medicine for my cute little ears and I’ll be getting this lump on me removed. It doesn’t seem to bother me, and I don’t have any other ones...this foster mom of mine has felt me all over just to be sure. For me it was an enjoyable rub down so I was fine with it! If you like to rub bellies, if you love to snuggle, if you have a couch and bed to share, and you like a super handsome mature gentleman....look no further..I am perfect!

Love,  Elmer

9/7/20: Howdy folks! My name is Elmer. I'm an ol' timer looking for a loving family. I need to visit the vet and get a check up and to get neutered. I got a bath as soon as I got here. I was nervous getting into the tub but enjoyed the scrub down. I slept through the first night. Being in a cozy home is much better than the streets. I will check back in when I become more situated and evaluated.
