Ernest & Cecil's Story

Hi, I'm Ernest (aka Ernie)! <br/><br/>I'm a handsome, sleek, three-month-old Bombay baby, and I've got a confession to make: I used to be the shy one. But not anymore.<br/>There was a time when the world felt pretty big to me. New sounds, new faces, new places — it was a lot, and I used to get scared more easily than I wish I had. But I worked at it, little by little, every single day, until one day I realized something: I wasn't scared anymore. I was just having fun.<br/><br/>Now? I'm a playful, happy little troublemaker, and I regret nothing. I chase things. I pounce on things. I get into all kinds of harmless mischief, and I love every second of it. My brother Cecil probably thought he'd always be the bold one, but these days I'm right there with him.<br/><br/>Cecil and I are still a team, through and through. If he wanders off somewhere I can't see him, I let him know about it — loudly — and he comes running back every single time. That's just how we work. We're better together, braver together, and honestly, a lot more fun together too.<br/><br/>Our mama, Cordelia, is a sweet calico who found her own happy ending — she chose a family, and they chose her right back, so she gets to stay in that home forever. I'm so glad she got that. Now Cecil and I are ready for our own forever too — a lively, playful home that can keep up with two confident little troublemakers who are more than ready for adventure.<br/><br/>If you've got room in your heart for a happy, silly, fully-out-of-his-shell kitten (and his equally bold brother), I'd love to meet you. We're ready when you are.<br/><br/>Love,<br/>Ernest & Cecil <br/><br/><br/>*Due to size, no small children<br/>****When puppies and kittens are adopted before being fixed, they MUST be adopted in East Tennessee.<br/><br/><br/>If you would like to meet your new best friends, contact the Adoption Coordinator at info@almosthometn.org or 865-236-0830. To fill out an application, go to www.almosthometn.org. If you cannot get it to work, let us know and we will email it to you in a different format.<br/><br/>Unless otherwise noted, all Almost Home cats are healthy, spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and flea & tick preventative.

Almost Home Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
<h3>Adopting a friend:</h3> The animals, lucky enough to find refuge with Almost Home, are all in loving foster homes. If you are interested in the possibility of giving one of the animals a new lease on life, please contact us. The contact information is listed at the end of each biography. <hr> <h3>What you need to do to adopt:</h3> If you would like to adopt a pet in need from Almost Home, basically, an application must be filled out. We will check two personal references and a vet reference. If you are approved for adoption, there is a trial period of about one week to make sure this is the animal for you and you are the person for the animal. Along with the trial period, a contract must be signed that basically states that if ever you cannot keep the animal that you must return the animal to Almost Home. Last but not least, a home check will be done. <hr> <h3>Meet & Greets:</h3> An approved application is required. This does not mean that you have to adopt but that you are approved to do so if everything works out. Since we are foster based, this limits the amount of people coming to our homes.<hr> ADOPTION FEE: The adoption fee for a cat is $85.<hr> The adoption fee for a kitten is $100. The adoption fee does include the kittens being fixed and their rabies shot when they are old enough through one of our local vets.<hr> The adoption fee for a dog is $200.<hr> The adoption fee for a puppy is $250. The adoption fee does include the puppies being fixed and their rabies shot when they are old enough through one of our local vets.<hr> Mature pet adoption fees are sometimes reduced.<hr> The adoption fee for pure bred dogs and cats will vary due to health and age of pet. This helps support our ill animals and our mutts that get left in the system longer.<hr> We do reserve the right to change the fees higher or lower due to the circumstance of the animal but what was stated above are the usual adoption fees. Microchipped pets will have a higher adoption fee. Our adoption fees do not cover the cost of the vetting and care the animal has received with us and if it ever does, the money just goes back it to helping other animals in need. <br><hr>
