Checking In With Gretchen



Here are some pics from the last few days. She is doing great and comes out of the woods earlier every night. She was at the top of the stairs at 8:45pm on Saturday night. The lady didn't know she was there and opened the door. When Gretchen saw her, she ran back into the yard, but didn't hide. Yay for progress!

We continue to purr for Gretchen to become tamer and tamer....it all just takes time and patience....some require more patience than others. We're very happy to see she is progressing so well. Bless you for your efforts with her....xxxxxxxxx

What wonderful news! Have you tried leaving a little Nip out...if she plays on the porch maybe she'll become even more comfortable.

It takes time, definitely! Mommie Finn once rescued a cat from a ditch and it took her months to get near her. It's just a matter of time!! She looks adorable too :)

She does look quite healthy, now a little calm would be great!

She sure is being a stubborn kitty, but at least she is still coming around.

She looks great. It takes so much time to get them to come around! Our white cats had white fathers and motehrs - that is why the whole litter but one was white. Just genetics I guess!

Angel Ginger Jasper said...

Progress for sure.. She will be letting you pet her soon.. Hugs GJ xx

Rene said...

Hooray! She's a beauty and is looking great.

CCL Wendy said...

That's a good picture of Gretchen, the last one -- I can see how pretty she actually is, finally.
I guess your patience will pay off sooner or later -- let's just hope it's sooner.

Gretchen is looking sassy and healthy. Bravo to your skills as a cat whisperer. I have only one feline princess. Royalty is a jealous breed. Roland
