Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, my name is Gretl! My foster mom calls me Gretty though. My brothers, sisters and mom (Maria) were found in the backyard of a Henrico Humane volunteer. I guess we were lucky because she took us in, gave us baths, lots of food and super comfy beds to sleep in. \r\n\r\nMy foster mom tells me that I’m a bit on the shy side when I first meet new people. I guess she’s right, I like to take my time to make sure they’re on the up-and-up. But once I feel comfortable, I can play and play for hours on end. Usually my brothers and sisters are all napping before I’m ready to take a break. My favorite game is hiding in boxes or under beds till one of my siblings comes by and then I pounce! My all-time favorite toy is a laser pointer though. I am proud to say that I catch the red dot almost all the time!\r\n\r\nI would love to find a home that is looking for two cats so I can spend the rest of my life teaching one of my brothers or sisters how to wrestle properly!\r\n\r\nIf you'd like to meet me, please email cats@henricohumane.org to setup a visit. Don't forget to tell them you want to meet Gretl!\r\n\r\nIf you're not sure which cat you're interested in or are just beginning to search for a companion, our adoption coordinators can help! Just fill out a short questionnaire at: www.henricohumane.org/adopt/cat-adoption-questionnaire/ that will help us match you with our wonderful cats then visit us at our Adoption Stand at West Broad Petco (next to Trader Joe's) every Saturday from 11:00 to 3:00.
