Dr. Patches is a distinguished senior cat with a striking tuxedo coat, long fur and a fluffy tail and is a joy to pet. He has a wonderful personality, very affectionate and loves to keep a watchful eye on his foster mom, often finding a cozy corner of the sofa to relax in while observing daily activities. His presence is both comforting and endearing, making him a delightful companion.
This handsome boy has a good appetite and thoroughly enjoys his meals. Though he has a keen interest in human food, it's important to keep him on a diet of high-quality cat food to ensure his health and well-being. Also wet food is necessary to keep his body healthy.
