Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton

Nicole Richie

It is reported that both Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton have adopted Bengal cats. I've written about Paris and Dwarf cats so I'll put pen to paper, briefly, about Nicole here.

We know that she is the adopted daughter of 80s pop singer Lionel Ritchie. Sometime around the beginning of 2007 Nicole was thrilled to home her new Bengal cat. She thinks that they are beautiful (who doesn't). The 24-year-old brunette added: "I'm thinking of calling it Chi-Chi-Cheetah!"

Paris Hilton is her best friend and we know how much Paris likes pets, both cats and dogs.

The press described the cat as "a wild new pet". Well we know better don't we.

Nicole Richie (born Nicole Camille Escovedo) was born in Berkeley,California. Nicole was informally adopted at aged three by Lionel and his then wife Brenda Harvey-Richie . Her godfathers are Michael Jackson and Quincy Jones.

When Lionel and Brenda split they spoilt Nicole. She had a lot of freedom and developed a drug problem, which she has now addessed.
