Anisha RCA was sired by Absolut RCA, a grey Straight Egyptian stallion born in 1994, bred in the United States by Janet L. Kelley and later imported to Germany. Absolut RCA was a son of the internationally influential Thee Desperado, whose sire The Minstril left a profound mark on modern Straight Egyptian breeding, and out of The Essens LadyWhite (by Hansan).
Her dam, Amirah II, a chestnut Straight Egyptian mare born in 1997, was sired by Masri El Salaam and out of Autumn Misty, herself a direct daughter of The Minstril. This brings The Minstril into Anisha RCA’s pedigree twice—through both her sire and dam.
Aminah II traced to the desert-bred Bint el Bahrein (1898), with the line carried forward through Cleopatraa, the striking black mare bred at El Zahraa and imported to the United States by Gleannloch Farms in 1970, a foundation for many influential Egyptian programs abroad.
Anisha RCA was rarely shown at halter shows. In 2007 she was shown at a halter event in Frankfurt, Germany. Later, in 2012, she competed at the Prague Intercup, where she placed fifth in her class, adding an international appearance to her record.
Anisha RCA had three registered daughters in Germany. Her first foal was the grey mare JKF Symphonie (2009, by Saif), followed by another grey mare, JKF Karima (2011, by Tareef Halim). After a break in breeding, she produced the chestnut mare Ameerah Maria (2019, by COF Just Tru).
