About Gretel Hoover

Gretel Hoover, a delightful tortoiseshell cat, was born in February 2013 and is looking for a new home due to a recent allergy in her household. She was adopted as a kitten alongside her sister, Hazel, and they are now seeking either a foster or forever home together. Gretel loves affection, especially chin scratches, and will happily sit beside you for some quality time. She's friendly and seems to think she’s a dog, often enjoying being picked up if it leads to snuggles. Hazel, more independent, enjoys her cat condo and a good sunny window spot — both girls thrive in a home with dogs and adapt well. They’re both spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and have tested negative for FIV and FeLV. If you’re ready to welcome a pair of loving cats into your life, Gretel and Hazel are waiting for you!
