About Ashby

Meet Ashby, a spirited 12-year-old looking for her happily ever after! After being adopted as a kitten, she faced tough times when her person passed away, leaving her to fend for herself on the streets. Thankfully, Ashby found her way back to us, where she received love, nourishment, and medical care, leading to a remarkable recovery. Don’t let her age fool you—Ashby still has plenty of energy! She loves racing around, chasing after string and feather toys, and pretending to hunt her toy mice, often accompanied by a triumphant yowl. When she’s not showcasing her playful side, Ashby is the ultimate cuddle buddy, always ready to curl up on a warm lap. She may become a bit overstimulated from too much petting, but she politely lets you know when she needs a little break without leaving your side. And if there’s one thing that truly drives her, it’s wet food! Ashby will make sure you never forget her mealtime. After all she’s endured, this loving girl deserves a comfortable, caring home where she can spend her golden years loved and safe. Could you be the one to give Ashby the forever home she has been longing for? Location: The Cat Corner (no-kill shelter) 85 Fulton Street Hampton, VA. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
