My story

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

Meet Aster—a 3.5-month-old sweetheart with soulful eyes and a gentle, hopeful spirit.

Aster was found as a stray and brought to the shelter, then given a second chance when he and his three siblings were pulled to safety during the recent freeze. The world is still a little new and uncertain to him, but you can see his curiosity growing every day. He’s learning that people can be kind, and while he’s taking things at his own pace, his interest is unmistakable.

Aster finds comfort in the presence of his siblings and would likely thrive in a home with a friendly companion animal to help him feel secure as he comes out of his shell. With patience, consistency, and love, this sweet boy is sure to blossom into a devoted and loving companion.

Aster may be small, but his heart is full—and he’s just waiting for the right home to help him believe the world is a safe and wonderful place. ✨
