About Chela

Chela is a delightful young calico cat eagerly waiting to enrich your life with her gentle charm. Having arrived on August 14, 2025, she embodies the beauty of the dilute calico coat, distinguished by her soft, muted colors. Originally left to face the world alone when her previous family moved away, Chela was rescued by a compassionate neighbor who ensured she received the care she needed. This petite feline is a bit shy, but with patience and kindness, her loving nature will shine through. Chela would thrive best in a single-animal home where she can reign as the beloved queen of her castle. All the cats at Humane Urban Group come with their health needs addressed: spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated, as well as tested for FIV/FeLV. Are you ready to make Chela a part of your family?
