Mom Chiclet (formerly "Chika") and son Chiko were rescued from a hoarding situation in NW Las Vegas. With 30+ cats and four dogs in a very small apartment, conditions were grim. Chiclet and Chiko were outdoors most of the time, and several other cats from this situation had already disappeared, been hit by a car, or killed by a neighbor's dog. When Chiclet developed a severe hematoma on her ear and the owner refused to provide medical treatment, a good Samaritan got her to the vet and and contacted us for help. With severe rains headed our way and despite not really being a foster based rescue, we couldn't leave her outside, so we took Chiclet and her son Chiko into our care. This sweet girl, who has the most beautiful markings- her mom was part Bengal- is getting used to indoor life. She is affectionate and silly and loves to chill near her foster mom and dad. She is just starting to come up on the couch for some cuddling. Chiclet's ear will likely always have a downturn from the neglected injury, but it is adorable! These babies have survived terrible conditions and are quite attached to one another. Please consider adopting Chiclet and Chiko together. We will reduce the adoption fee for each cat by $25.
