My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

DOB May 1, 2010. Meet our GORGEOUS Asta! This absolutely striking girl was rescued from death row in a high kill shelter. We are so grateful for TCR coming to the rescue of this darling young gal. She was pregnant when she was brought into TCR’s foster care so it wasn’t only her life that was saved. We didn’t know this at the time but Asta has turned out to be all-time most easy going and accommodating cat around. She’s incredibly laid back and content wherever she is. Somehow, she must have known that her life was in peril (and living in a shelter would not have been pleasant), so being anywhere safe and loved is just fine with Ms. Asta.

Asta really should be nominated for the mother of the year award! In addition to providing unwavering attention to her own litter of 5, Asta adopted five other motherless kittens as her own and became the proud mom of 10 (Atticus, Boo Radley, Calpurnia, Dickens, Fezziwig, Jem, Little Dorrit, Nickleby, Pip and Scout!). Her patience is unlimited. She cares for all of the foster kids in her home including a couple of rascal teens who are groomed regularly by this loving mamma.

To give Asta a much needed break and some individual attention, her foster mom brings her out onto the back deck from time to time. Asta thoroughly loves this and is perfectly content to stretch out beside her human for some pats and a little snooze away from the kids. Asta also LOVES roasted chicken and Temptation treats! We are quite happy to indulge this wonderful girl with these treats, she’s truly deserving of them.

Asta is a sweet natured girl who seems to have adopted an 'anything goes' attitude about life. She’s gentle and remarkably accommodating about pretty much everything. She gets along just fine with other adult cats and, needless to say, is the ultimate mother to any youngsters. She’s incredibly soft and her coat has a wonderful sheen with ginger markings that are simply striking. To top it off, Asta has jade-green eyes that are completely captivating. Come and meet (and fall in LOVE) with Ms. Asta today! We know you’ll be smitten!
