Snuffles

Snuffles is a friendly mole rat living in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

Background
So named for the snorting noise she makes when sniffing about, Snuffles is a tamed Mole Rat living in Sloan and is as stated by Chomps Lewis keeping the morale up even though the Quarry workers can't work because of all the Deathclaws. Snuffles originally helped the miners by digging tunnels and assisting in the mining at the quarry, but when the Powder Gangers drove the miners off and the Deathclaws moved in, the miners (and Snuffles) were forced to abandon the quarry. Her leg was badly-injured by a Baby Deathclaw, but she was saved by the miners. Unfortunately, they were not able to treat her broken leg - but the Courier can.

Quests
Snuffles is a mole rat that seems to have a damaged leg; you can heal this leg if you have 30 points in Medicine. This will gain you some NCR fame if you tell Chomps Lewis of your good deed. You can also stop by once in a while to ask her how things are going.

Appearances
Snuffles appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * Veronica often glitches and attacks Snuffles, even if she is under direct orders not to do so.
 * If you enter Sloan with Rex in tow, Rex may become hostile to Snuffles, killing him, and causing the whole town to become hostile to you. This could be explained by the fact that, as King says, Rex "hates rats and people with hats", and Snuffles is a Mole rat.
