My story

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

Aster – Brave Momma & Survivor
Meet Aster, a stunning brown-and-black tabby with the heart of a warrior and the gentleness of a devoted mother. Her journey began on a cold, dreary March day when she was found wandering the streets—pregnant, very sick, and in desperate need of help. An animal control officer brought her to the shelter, and just two days later, she gave birth to five precious kittens on March 7, 2025.

Life dealt her a heartbreaking blow when only three of her babies survived, but Aster never gave up. With unwavering love and the tireless care of her foster family, she nursed her surviving kittens—Aspen, Ase, and Astro—through their fragile early days. For two full weeks, she poured every ounce of her strength into keeping them safe and loved, even while recovering from her own illness.

Now healthy, strong, and ready for her next chapter, Aster is a calm, affectionate girl who loves gentle pets, cozy naps, and quiet companionship. Her resilience is inspiring, and her sweet nature will melt your heart.

After giving so much to her little family, it’s finally Aster’s turn to be cherished. Could you be the one to give this incredible mom the forever home she’s been waiting for?

We have dozens of cats and kittens available! All our adoptable cats are located at the Frisky Cat Cafe in St Augustine. 1092 Ponce De Leon Blvd (US 1). Visiting the cafe is a great way to find your perfect kitty. All of our cats and kittens are socialized and happy to interact with visitors, so you will meet them with their true personalities.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We are a foster based rescue. Our kitties are raised in loving foster homes, so they are socialized, love people and have good potty habits. Some are already adjusted to busy households with dogs, other adult cats and children. Please send us an inquiry and we will schedule a meet and greet.

More about this rescue

Small Lives Matter Kitten Rescue

We are a foster based rescue providing home care havens for kittens in need.

We are a 501(c)3 charitable organization supported by a network of volunteer fosters. We provide urgent care to neonate and sick kittens in need of life saving support.
We provide a haven to kittens until they are thriving and ready for spay and neuter surgery and then adoption.

Kittens under eight weeks old are one of the most at-risk populations in the United States, being killed or allowed to die by the hundreds of thousands every year. Our vision is that all neonatal, sick and other at-risk kittens are given a chance to grow and thrive through life-saving fosters and then adoption. Join us in the fight to stop euthanasia of orphaned kittens and share our dream that one day animals will no longer be killed in America's shelters. We believe every life is important, no matter how small.

We need everyone's help with our mission. There are many ways you can help. Please donate,volunteer to foster or adopt today!!
