Cat, Chicken Rescued During Carr Fire After Being Found Huddled Together

SHASTA COUNTY (CBS13) – The Carr Fire has caused major devastation. But through the ashes, one unlikely friendship has formed – between a cat and a chicken.

Crews with the Grass Valley Fire Department, who were helping with fire fight, spotted the pair last month huddled together in a doorway in the Redding area. Both had suffered burns.

The inseparable duo were rescued and are now expected to make a full recovery.
