About Shasta

Shasta’s journey began at a campground, where she was discovered alongside her mom and brother, Lemar. Their mom was a feral cat, but she was trapped and spayed before being returned to her familiar home. Shasta and Lemar were fortunate to be cared for by a family until they were ready for rescue and new homes. A bit cautious in unfamiliar settings, Shasta is also genuinely curious. She takes her time to observe her surroundings, allowing her to approach new experiences at her own pace. Once she trusts you, her sweet and observant nature shines through. Her foster mom notes that Shasta takes her household responsibilities quite seriously. She absolutely loves supervising chores, especially when it comes to folding laundry and keeping an eye on what everyone’s doing. She has even helped Lemar learn to embrace the kindness of humans, showcasing her thoughtful personality. Shasta would thrive in a calm home where she can adapt without feeling rushed. With a little patience, you'll soon discover this dedicated little helper following you around, eager to assist in any way she can. Adopt today, and bring some sweetness into your life!
