Ernie is an outgoing youngster who was rescued with his brother and best friend, Bert (please see separate posting), as a very shy and scared kitten at the end of October 2025. Fast forward several months and Ernie is now a different kitty! Just like Bert, he comes running to his foster Mom at feeding time and enjoys being petted. He is still learning about being picked up but is making good progress.Ernie happily intermingles with all the other cats in his multi-cat foster facility. He is curious and adventurous, eager to explore and discover the world when not napping with one or more of his foster buddies.Ernie's estimated date of birth is April 1, 2025. He is in excellent health and condition, neutered, vaccinated and negative for feline leukemia and FIV. He will need a little time and understanding as he adjusts to a new home but his loving personality will soon shine through. Adoption together with his brother, Bert, is strongly preferred, though he can be adopted by himself to a home with another young feline anxious for a happy, up-beat buddy.
