Meet Ernie, the most lovable little kitten with a heart of gold! 🌟 This courageous feline has a unique backstory that will tug at your heartstrings. Can you believe that on a sunny 80-degree day in May 2025, Ernie was found in a rubber tote with his five brothers, tossed aside like yesterday’s trash? 😢 Luckily, the amazing volunteers at Pet Angel swooped in, and now he’s ready to find a forever home that will shower him with love! Ernie was diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), but let’s not focus on the ‘what ifs’! Instead, let’s celebrate his journey and the bright future that awaits this spunky little guy! He’s on a mission to find a human who isn’t afraid of a kitty with a heart condition. With extra vet care and love, Ernie is determined to live life to the fullest! 🎉 This little ball of energy is absolutely addicted to the cat wheel; you might just hear him yelling “Step-MEOW” at the top of his lungs as he dashes around like a superstar on a red carpet! And if you’re looking for a cat who loves lap time, playful antics, and the occasional nibble on your hair or shoelaces, then Ernie is your guy! Just a heads-up though: he loves to wrestle, so young children may not be the best match for his playful side! 🐾 Life with Ernie means plenty of laughter and joy, just be prepared for some kitten-sized antics along the way! 💖 He’s spayed, microchipped, and completely up to date on vaccinations. Ernie is looking for a strictly indoor-only home where he can lounge with other cats, as he thrives in a fun-filled social environment. While he hasn’t met any dogs yet, his outgoing nature suggests he could become friends with a gentle dog after a proper introduction! Don’t let his heart condition discourage you! Ernie's enlarged heart just means he’s got even more love to give! 🐈✨ If you’re searching for a new furry family member who’s got personality and a big heart to match, look no further! You can meet this delightful kitty at Pet Angel Adoption in Frankenmuth, Michigan, but remember to apply to adopt *through the Buddy App*! He’s waiting for that special human to whisk him away into a lifetime of cuddles and care. Let’s make Ernie’s happily ever after happen! ❤️
