Prepare to be completely enchanted by Gretel, a kitten who is as sweet as she is undeniably beautiful! With her gorgeous calico long fur, she's a true showstopper, but her incredible personality is what will truly capture your heart.

Once she's greeted you, she'll shower you with happy purrs, a clear sign of her love and contentment. This darling girl absolutely adores human interaction and is incredibly comfortable being held. She'll happily let you scoop her up and hold her like a baby, melting into your arms with soft contentment.
Beyond her cuddly nature, Gretel is also a playful and fun-loving kitten. She loves to chase toys, pounce, and explore her surroundings with all the boundless energy of a happy young cat. Whether it's a quiet cuddle session or an energetic play romp, Gretel is ready for it all!
If you're searching for a striking, affectionate, and playful long-haired calico kitten who will greet you with purrs and snuggle like a pro, then Gretel is the perfect addition to your family. Don't miss the chance to welcome this precious girl into your home – she's ready to love you unconditionally!
Gretel is from an owner surrender with mom and brother.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
Want to adopt a kitten? We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.
