My story

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

Be sure to read my FULL BIO all the way down to my vetting and how to apply. Not all sites will show the full bio, so if needed please go to www.rockersrescue.org and click on adoptable pets to be sure you are reading all details. The animals have multiple pictures to view. (on our site click "view more" under the main photo, or scroll to the bottom to see the rest.)  We are located around Shreveport, Louisiana and generally meet inside one of our adoption partners locations which are Hollywood Feed, Shreveport or in PetSmart, Shreveport.   

Astrid - female Birthday est May 27, 2024. 

Please read *History*: Astrid was originally found dumped outside of a vet clinic with a broken lower leg/toes. She was taken to Bossier City Animal Control. We go there weekly to do photos and network their kitties. We instantly fell in love with her and noticed her injured rear leg. She was soooo sweet despite being hurt. We took her under our rescue and to our vet. Our vet did xrays and determined that there was a break near the ankle area and across the toes. They said that the break was healing and it was better for us to monitor and let it continue healing than to amputate. Over our time monitoring it, she runs and jumps and doesn't tend to favor it much as it has been healing. In the beginning she was rather gentle with it and lifted it a good bit, but as of lately that has subsided from how it was. Leg does look a bit deformed. 

Astrid has always been a very friendly and curious girl. She enjoys hanging out with other kitties and is also around a dog (she tolerates that one because its pushy, haha) . Uses litterbox. Likes curling up with the other kitties or on humans lap/chest. Has been around an 11yr old child.  She can be independent at times and also needy/ wanting your attention and snuggles at other times. Likes toys.  Let you know when its food time, the princess enjoys her meals. 

 Medical: Kitten has had 3 rounds of vaccinations/booster vaccines and rabies vaccine. (Vets give at least 3 sets, each set being a certain amount of weeks apart.) Spayed.  Dewormed. On monthly flea/tick prevention. Treated for ringworm in past. Has had xray of leg and vet examination determined the break was healing and it was better to let it continue healing than to amputate. When you adopt, you will get a folder with their medical records to bring to your vet.  Kitten will be microchipped. It is via Petlink and there are NO fees. It is a lifetime registration and our rescue donations will have already paid for it. 

 Note: We do not approve of declawing. So if you wish to do that, please do not apply. Keep in mind the financial needs for the kitten/cats. This kitten is also to be indoors only. If you want an outdoors or indoor/outdoor kitty let us know and we can direct you. 

  ADOPTION: $40 adoption donation for approved application. Our rescue spends a LOT more than this fee on each life, but it is a way to help give back some to go towards the next life we help.  We are a 501c3 non profit that is 100% volunteer run. We function solely on donations from kind people. If you wish to donate more or continue following/supporting us over time, we would appreciate your continued love to help our organization save lives. 

Adoption Process Summary: You apply. We will email or call if we have any questions. Upon app approval, we would schedule a day we all meet at PetSmart Shreveport or Hollywood Feed Shreveport. At that meet we would all make sure that you feel the pet is a good match for your home. If so, we run the adoption. You fill out our contract, pay your donation fee, and receive your folder with their medical records. You must bring a pet carrier to this appointment because your pet will go home with you that day if we all feel it is a great match. Woohoo!  We take your adoption picture and you head off with your new furry friend! We can often provide adoption coupons too!   

HOW TO APPLY:  Go to  https://www.rockersrescue.org/info/adoption  and find the CAT APP. Please include as much about yourself as possible. Some people applying like to send an email with pictures of their home/pets/ or family. Email is rockersrescue@gmail.com  Our Rockers Rescue pets are currently in foster homes that help us save lives. When you choose to adopt from a rescue, you help open space for us to save another life in need. Thank you for considering adoption! Let us know if you have any questions. Thanks!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We require people interested in our dogs or cats to fill out an adoption application at
https://www.rockersrescue.org/info/adoption

We ask that you read the pets full bio on our site before applying. www.rockersrescue.org If approved we will plan a meet to see how the dog does in your home environment and with your pets and family. If you are not local it is a little longer process. Some cats we can meet and do the adoption at PetSmart and in select cases we will bring them to their new home. Any questions just ask!

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Our animals are in foster homes so we do not yet have a location for potential adopters to visit. You may email us at rockersrescue@gmail.com to see if we have current adoption days or check our facebook page Rockers Rescue- Northwest La. We are partners with both PetSmart and Hollywood Feed for adoption events.

**If we do not have a current adoption event, we require people to first fill out our adoption application before we will schedule a meet. We are foster only so this saves us time having the potantial adopter pre-approved.
