Woman who was reunited two months after Los Angeles forest fires with Pet Cat

While most may have lost hope, 82-year-old Katherine Kiefer had different plans than her pet cat, a California Maine Coon called Aggie, was missing two months ago after the forest fires of Los Angeles. The cat was feared for dead, but Ms. Kiefer continued to look for Aggie with her search efforts, which were bore fruit this week when she received a call from the animal shelter in West Angeles.

Her daughter Carolyn Kiefer informed the video of the reunification of the duo on social media, which quickly became viral. The clip showed that Ms. Kiefer reached for Aggie when the tears flocked out of her eyes.

“Hello sweetest girl. Hello Aggie. I'm so happy. I never thought that I would see you again,” said Ms. Kiefer.

“I'm so happy to see you. The sweetest girl,” she added when she pated Aggie, who remained rolled up in her arms.

Aggie has subjected several blood transfusions since the rescue, with a specialist monitoring its progress. According to Carolyn, Aggie was “basically the skin and bone and in a state of absolute hunger” when the Shelter members found her.

In particular, Ms. Kiefer was on a medical appointment on the day on which the fire devoured her neighborhood. Despite Ms. Kiefer and her children's best efforts, Aggie could not be found. According to the family, Aggie was susceptible to threatening situations.

“What a heartwarming story. I am glad that you will get your family member back,” said one user while another was added: “Poor little sweetie. I'm glad that she is doing well!”

Los Angeles Waldbrände

The devastating forest fires in Los Angeles started in the first week of January and caused damages in more than 135 billion US dollars. After 24 days, the palisades and Eaton Blaze burned completely on January 31, with over 37,000 acres of burning and more than 16,000 structures were destroyed.

The long -term effects of the forest fires remain significant, with potential damage to real estate values, the burden on public finances and the effects on health and tourism, which still have to be taken into account properly.
