About Bert & Ernie

Adoption Fee: $100
Maine Coon / Domestic Cat
Age: Young Kitten
Sex: Male

Bert & Ernie are two, 8 week-old brothers who are in need of one loving foster or forever home. They are both brown tabbies, who are believed to be half Maine Coon/half domestic short hair- and they are best friends, who want to stay together fur-ever. Bert & Ernie had a rough start in life. They were born into a colony of feral cats, living in the Faircrest Heights suburb of West Los Angeles. They took shelter in the crawl space of an abandoned house, dodged traffic as cars zoomed by, and struggling each day to scrape the basics together and survive, yet they were still happy and full of life. Once weaned from their mother, my neighbors and I decided to give Bert & Ernie a better life. We humanely trapped them, brought them inside, taught them to trust gentle people, and are getting them medical care. Both kittens have been tested for FIV & FeLV, and do not have either disease (yay!), which means they can safely be around other healthy cats, once they're old enough to be vaccinated. Both kitties have been bathed, and treated with Revolution, so they are flea and parasite free, and they have had their first doses of de-worming treatments...with a second round to follow soon. We have even procured the support of an excellent LA-based cat-rescue organization for Bert & Ernie's medical care, so whomever is willing to adopt them will not have to foot the bill for their basic, preliminary medical needs (like vaccinations, 2nd round of deworming, etc). We are looking for either a loving foster family, or loving forever family to take both brothers (having two is actually easier and lower-maintenance than having one), that can give them lots of love, affection, stimulation, and teach them how wonderful life with humans can be. They have already made amazing strides towards trusting and loving humans, because they are still so young, and tiny (approximately 1 pound each). If you'd like to learn more about Bert & Ernie, please call me, Andrea, at (323) 363-4098. We can set up a time for you to come meet these tiny little bundles of love! Please share Bert & Ernie's story with everyone you know, so we can find them an amazing home as soon as possible. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
