Adopt

Our Adorable Adoptables

All of our animals go home spayed/neutered, micro chipped, and up to date on age appropriate shots. All dogs are heartworm tested once they reach 6 months of age, and all cats are FIV/Leukemia tested regardless of age. We strive to put our pets into foster homes so they come to you social and potty trained. Each animal is loved and vetted to the fullest before they become your new best friend. Our adoption fees are in place to cover these costly vet expenses. Cats are $85, and dogs are $150.
Some special adoption fees apply, and they will be noted under the animal's profile below!

*As a side note, you will often see mostly black/tabby cats and pit bull terrier like dogs or mixes as our adoptable animals. They are the most in need of our rescue and protection! We do get in smaller breeds or specialty kitties from time to time, so be sure you check this website and our Facebook continually! If you have reservations about adopting a "not-so-shabby" Tabby, Black cat or Pit Bull, please look at the following links!

Misconceptions and Truths about Cat's Coat Colors

A cat's color has nothing to do with their personality! Not only that, black cats were once revered as LUCKY! It was only very recently that they became symbols of bad luck. Any black cat owner can tell you, it's just not true! And tabbies, they are just the cat's meow!
The AKC has labeled pit bulls as great family dogs (especially wonderful with children), not to mention a higher than average level of patience and intelligence! Hey, just drop by the office and meet our "social secretary"- Rowan the pit bull terrier!

Jack Sparrow

His name is quite fitting, as he is an amazing little guy with only one eye! Having lost one eye to surgery, after being injured, he is recovering very well! His foster dad says "Don't feel bad for him, it's not slowing him down one bit!" He is very laid back and as sweet as he can be! He gets along great with other dogs.

He is neutered and UTD on vaccines.

Charlie

This handsome boy is 7 years old. He grew up with a dog and does fine with other animals. He is very laid back and loves to sit in laps and by the window.

He is hoping to find his second chance soon. He was returned after being in a home for 7 years, and though he is a little sad, he opens up quickly and becomes a true love.

He is in a foster home, so please let us know if you'd like to meet him!

Haley
How can you so "no" to a sweet girl like this? Haley is about 6 months old, very loving, super playful, and this lucky black kitten is ready for her forever home. Haley was abandon when she was only weeks old. She has grown into a very playful and affectionate cat who gives butterfly kisses.

Edison

Edison is 4 months old and loves to be scratched on the head and have his back stroked. He is still a little scared and squirmy when he is held for more than a few minutes, but we think this is out of fear. The more he gets to know you, the more he likes you to hold him.
Edison is very curious and loves to explore!

He has a blast playing with his foster girlfriend Miley, who is also available for adoption through HSAC.

Currently in foster care. Please email hsac@netpath.net if you are interested in meeting this tiny man!

Edison and Miley
Miley (female/black) & Edison (male/tabby)
Both are available for adoption and are ~4 months old! They aren't related but they sure do love each other. They have a special bond. Would be great if they could stay together! They are currently in a foster home. Contact us if you would like to set up a meet 'n' greet!

Miley

Miley is a 4 month old purr monster, and the perfect lap kitty. She is super playful and the biggest flirt.

Miley gets along with other cats and cat-friendly dogs.

Miley is currently in foster care with Edison, her foster boyfriend, who is also available for adoption.

If you are interested in meeting Miley, please email the HSAC.

Rihanna

Rihanna is a 10 month old Tortie female who is ready to give lots of love! She is quite independent, but loves rubbing against your legs and receiving neck scratches in return!

She is spayed and UTD on all shots!

Currently in foster care and ready for a forever home.

Cutie

Cutie is a 3-year-old female who is spayed and UTD on all shots. She was taken in after her human got sick and could no longer care for her. Since coming to HSAC, Cuties has been on a bit of a diet, as her former daddy used to spoil her. The vet says she is just a big-boned, "thick" girl. Her curves have started to show since she's been on a diet.

She is a very interested in the new puppy in her foster home, but was not raised around other animals, so a slow introduction will be best. She is still young and can adapt if you show her lots of love and patience.

She loves sitting in the window looking out at birds, hiding in her cat cave while watching her foster mom work.

Faline

She is a sweet and petite, loving, roly-poly, Brown Tabby girl with a lovely temperament. She amuses herself well with her toys, enjoys attention and loves to spend hours laying in the warm sunshine. She gets along well with cat-friendly dogs and other friendly cats. Faline is guesstimated to be between 6-8 years old. She was an adult when found in a car lot, rubbing against the legs car-shoppers, pleading for someone to take her home. Well, someone did, HSAC! She tested positive for FIV, feline immunodeficiency virus. FIV is a lentivirus, the same class of virus as HIV. FIV is known to cause a weakening of the cat's immune system. The most common route of infection is from a deep bite wound from a FIV-positive cat to another cat. It can also be transmitted via blood, in utero and from milk from an infected mother cat. It is very rare for cats to get FIV from just being around infected cats, from sharing food bowls, or from a person touching a FIV-positive cat and then touching a FIV-negative cat. FIV-negative and FIV-positive cats can live together as long as the cats get along and do not fight. The risk that a FIV-positive cat could spread the virus to a FIV-negative cat can be minimized by having them live in separate rooms until you are confident that they will not fight with each other. FIV-positive cats can live normal lives both in quality and duration. They do take special care in terms of monitoring them for signs of infection and they do have a tendency to have bad dental disease. Faline did have dental issues, and with proper vetting and surgery, they have been resolved. She is now looking forward to finding her forever, loving, home! Faline is a loving, loyal, companion, very low-maintenance, and well-mannered. Please consider adopting a special needs kitty like Faline.

Currently in foster care, please email us if you would like to meet Faline!

Pretty Girl
Pretty Girl is just that, a very beautiful calico cat with unusual markings! There is not an angle she doesn't photograph well from. She enjoys the pampered indoor life, where she feels safe, the food and water flow freely, and where there are lots of soft places to sit and watch the world go on around her. She is great with other cat-friendly pets, and clearly loves her nightly treat of wet food. She also enjoys being brushed with a special massage brush called a Zoom Groom. For now, Pretty Girl lives in a studio room with other fosters, but would love a quiet home of her own to explore and get comfy in. She is under 2 years old, is a calm, quiet, girl, careful to not get in your way. Most any time of the day will find her lapping up the sun's warm rays on the floor, or stretched out in a kitty bed, cat tree, or on a rug. P.G. will thrive wonderfully in a subdued environment.

Currently in foster care, please email us if you would like to meet this sweet girl.

He is neutered and UTD on shots. You can visit him at the PetSmart Luv-A-Pet Center.

Katie

She is currently in foster care.

Apollo

Apollo is a 3-4 month old Aussie mix pup who was rescued from the shelter along with his brother Caesar. He is currently in foster care. A sweet boy, he gets along with other dogs and didn't seem to mind cats at all. He's a playful pup who would make a great addition to any family.

He is neutered and will go to his forever home up-to-date on vaccines!

If interested in meeting Apollo, please fill out the adoption application so a meet and greet can be scheduled.

Cosmos and Romeo

Cosmos and Romeo were rescued as kittens by the HSAC and were adopted together about 4 years ago. Sadly, they came back to us due to the adopter no longer being able to keep them. They are beautiful boys who are well behaved, friendly and affectionate. They are bonded and we would like for them to be adopted together.

You can visit Cosmos and Romeo at Pet Smart in Burlington, NC.

These boys are both neutered and UTD on vaccines.
