My Story

Ernest, also called Ernie, was found wandering emaciated in a nursery on SW 184th Street and 162nd Avenue when he was around 4-6 months old. He was gelded at the SPCA in 2021. Now Ernie is happy, healthy, and ready for his forever home!

Ernie is a lovable and affectionate steer, the friendliest of the SPCA herd. He comes when his name is called, usually bringing the rest of the herd with him. He loves attention and enjoys taking treats by hand, especially carrots and bananas.
