Today is for Asia Rushing

October 23, 2025 by Katelyn

This post has been corrected from the original

Many thanks to Dora Rushing for sponsoring this day of sanctuary on her birthday in honor of Dora chimpanzee and in memory of her kitty Asia, who shared the same birthday as Dora – June 6th.

Thank you for allowing us to pay tribute to Asia and to celebrate Dora and all of the chimpanzees.

    Thanks again, Dora.
    Sorry to hear about your girlie. Torties are the best! I’ve had two in my lifetime, and the last one was without a doubt the sweetest kitty I’ve ever met! Even when my sassafras calico was less than kind to her. How kind of you to remember her by honoring Li’l Dora!

    I’m guessing Dora chimpanzee is delighted to have you, Dora, sponsoring your birthday in her honor and in memory of your dearest friend, Asia. A sweet thread connects all of you! Two Dora’s and two shared birthdays! Hope your birthday was special.

    Happy Birthday, Dora! And how precious that Mam Dora and her lovely kitty shared a birthday, and that Asia is honored by a generous donation to the chimps.
