TWENTY for 2020: Carol & Tico (Homed!!)

To mark Cat Chat's 20th Anniversary, our "Twenty for 2020" Campaign aims to find homes for the 20 most overlooked cats in rescue: https://www.catchat.org/twenty-for-2020

Number 14 on our campaign are...

CAROL & TICO

Carol and Tico have been in the care of Furry Tails Feline Welfare, Blackpool for more than 2 years.

Paws up if you're a mummy's boy! Yes... it's Tico. Whilst his mum Carol waved off her other kittens to new homes, tiny Tico stayed firmly tied to her apron strings.

Now (not so little) Tico is of an age when he really should be independent and bold... but no. Like so many teenage boys, he has perfected the art of lounging around, is socially awkward, and don't bother trying to strike up a conversation, you'll get nothing back. Bring out the snacks... that's when then he'll suddenly appear. Typical! What's a mother to do!

Carol takes solace in hanging out with the humans. She's even partial to an affectionate tango around their ankles. But don't tell Tico. Mum dancing! He'd be mortified.

Great news!

Carol and Tico have been RESERVED! A lady came by to see them last weekend after seeing them on our campaign, and if all goes well, they will be moving in with her this weekend! Fingers crossed it all goes smoothly for them! :D

Even better news! Carol and Tico have been HOMED! This is what the shelter had to say:

“Just to let you know the brilliant news that Carol & Tico went to their forever home on Saturday, the lady is lovely. She’s well aware of how “skitty” Tico is but she lives in a house where there are many quiet places, she has no children. We are all absolutely over the moon as you can imagine and want to thank you for your brilliant write up as that is what attracted her along with the pictures. After over 7 years we waved them off with a little tear in our eyes but we have already had lots of pictures of them and we are sure they are going to be just fine.

Thank you for your help we really appreciate it. It just goes to show there is a loving home for every cat .”
