It appears the tall tale that all cats have nine lives may be true for a California Maine coon named Aggie. The beloved feline was feared dead for two months after the Palisades wildfire in Los Angeles left her family's home in ashes. But her owner, 82-year-old Katherine Kiefer, held out some hope. Over the weekend, Kiefer got a call from the West Los Angeles Animal Shelter over the weekend. Katherine's daughter Carolyn Kiefer shared their reunion Saturday in a TikTok video that quickly garnered more than 1 million likes. Tears poured from Katherine Kiefer's eyes as Aggie curled up in her arms. “I was very much worried that I was going to wake up and (discover) it had been a dream,” she said. Kiefer was at a medical appointment the day fire engulfed her neighborhood. Her children couldn't find Aggie — who was prone to hiding — when they tried to rescue her. “The one thing my mom asked was: did you get Aggie?” Carolyn recalls. Many pet owners struggled to reach their domesticated animals during the frantic rush to evacuate from the Palisades wildfire in January. Aggie, who is about 5 years old, was gifted to Katherine Kiefer by a friend during the COVID-19 pandemic. Social media users were so touched by the video of their reunion that many have been asking for daily updates. Kiefer’s daughter set up a GoFundMe to raise money for Aggie’s vet bills, and she has already raised more than half of her goal. Since her rescue, Aggie has undergone several blood transfusions and is now seeing a specialist. “She was basically skin and bone, and in a state of absolute starvation,” Carolyn said. Carolyn Kiefer said since reuniting with Aggie her mom has transformed back to her old self — smiling and laughing. “Ever since Aggie is now like back in the land of the living… everything’s changed,” she said. “I always loved Aggie, but the fact that she brought my mom back, I am forever grateful. Aggie will officially be reunited with her family on Thursday when she is released from the hospital. Until then, Kiefer said she’s anxiously waiting to have her back in her arms. “I would say to other pet owners don’t underestimate cats,” she said. “This was improbable, and it happened.”
