Gretal

Gretal was a young female cat that was left in a carrier in the RAPS parking lot. Her owner would not even enter the building. Gretal was skinny and unfixed and was wary of affection. She spent her first few months at RAPS hanging out mostly with cats and avoiding people. The months flew by without a single application for Gretal, soon she reached her one year anniversary! Then one day Tammy and her daughter Gabrielle walked into the cat room. Gretal knew she had found her new home. She walked up to Gabrielle and it was love at first sight. Below is an update from Tammy and her family:

Gretal is a joy to our family. I know you guys were partially worried that she may not get adopted after having lived there for so long. The first couple days she enjoyed hiding under our couch (not sure why), but now she is out and about when we come home from work. She enjoy’s our daughter and puts up with her tenderness towards the cat.

My husband (who was the one I was worried about) adores her to a tee. (it’s pretty funny) She will nuzzle up to him and “kiss” him and he can’t say no to her charm.

She is starting to eat a bit more, and enjoys the chicken and wild rice from Fancy Feast.
Her dandruff issues are slowly departing and she enjoys here daily brushing.

Her favorite spot : The top floor of our three storey home on the master bedrooms window sill.

I just wanted to say thank you once again for helping me choose the right cat for our family.

Thanks again;

Tammy, Kevin and Gabrielle
