*paws at you*one very powerful combo

It started with Himmel, a snow leopard photographed at Japan's Ishikawa Zoo in 2024. In October 2026, an AI-assisted edit gave him the big eyes and face of Mei Mei Cat.

Add the old internet roleplay phrase “*paws at you*” and a little guy became everyone's favorite way to ask a friend to hop online. The edits, redraws and increasingly silly captions spread across X, TikTok and beyond.

This is the Elysium edition: the same little guy, the same raised paw, now living above the clouds. One raised paw. So many ways to say hi.

chapter two

a day in elysium.

Waving hello in a sunrise meadow
07:00good morning, actually.
In a pink beanie among petals
09:00in his soft era. still.
Holding a cup of tea at a cafe table
11:00tea with a friend. you.
Pawing out from the clouds
13:00pawing from the clouds.
Waiting by a rainy window
17:00waiting for you to hop on.
Two little guys touching paws in the snow
19:00a meeting of the beans.
Reaching out among the stars
22:00no thoughts. only stars.
Asleep in a cloud bed, one paw still out
00:00still pawing. in his sleep.

chapter three

how to paw in.

$paws lives on Elysium. Four small steps, one big friendship.

  1. 01

    get an EVM wallet

    MetaMask, Rabby or any EVM wallet works. Add the Elysium network so the little guy can find you.

  2. 02

    bring some gas

    Move a little gas onto Elysium so your swap can go through. Not a lot. He is a small guy.

  3. 03

    open Uniswap

    Hit the button below or paste the official $paws contract into Uniswap. The contract drops here first.

  4. 04

    swap and paw back

    Pick an amount, confirm, and welcome to the friendship. It's literally the least you could do.
