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!

Maxwell, "Max"

Max is an adult Shih Tzu mix who came form the local shelter. When we first saw him, we could have confused him with a dirty mop! Now, he's so healthy and happy! He is house trained, neutered, up to date on vaccines, heart worm negative, and chipped. Here is what his foster mom has to say about him:

"He is a sweet, mellow, perfectly well-behaved gentleman. He loves to curl up the couch with you. He is perfectly housebroken, crate-trained, and sits on command."
Augustus, "Auggie"


This is one handsome kitten! He is a 4 month old classic tabby with beautiful swirls in his fur. Not only is he handsome, he is very smart and playful! He loves dogs and other playful cats.

Auggie says his dream home would have a large cat tree where he could watch the birds outside. He also asks for a lap to sit in and a kitty bad for naps.


Auggie has been neutered, microchipped, and is up to date on all his vaccines. All he needs now is you!
Marley and Jack

Marley (black puppy) and Jack (white puppy) are 4 month old boxer mix brothers available for adoption. They must go to separate homes- we don't send home sibling puppies together. Believe us, this is a good thing.

Here's what their foster mom has to say:

 "Marley has done really well with his potty training.......he really seems to get it!  He is very playful and active.  He's very perceptive and doesn't miss a beat.

Jack has a very sweet disposition.  He seems pretty laid back, as long as there is no food involved.  Also very playful. 

They have both enjoyed playing with the 1-yr. old Chihuahua next door.  
They are both good around my cat, though my cat is antisocial and just runs away." 

So there you have it, two adorable and sweet puppies!

To adopt Marley or Jack, please fill out an application below! They will be neutered, micro chipped, and up to date on age appropriate vaccines as part of their adoption!

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.

Charlie is declawed, although, we do not promote declawing, it was done prior to coming to the HSAC.

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

Sissy is a 3 year old beautiful black cat. She is very loving and playful. She loves to play with two toys in particular and will even bring them back when you throw them! Sissy is in a foster home with other cats and kittens and does well with them. She takes a few days to get used to a home, but once she is past the initial shock of a new home she is the perfect little cat for any family!

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.

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.

The Beatles Muses

These two adorable kittens were rescued from the BAS and are now living it up in foster care where they have feline foster brothers and canine foster sisters!

Lady Madonna and Lucy are litter mates and are estimated at about 8 weeks old! They are playful and curious. 

The following is from the foster mom:

Lady Madonna: 8 week old orange tabby female. Madonna is the lover of this group. She loves to play but then when she's tired, She will come on your lap and just snuggle and purr. 

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds: 8 week old orange tabby female: Lucy looks very similar to Madonna, however she is more of a honey color than orange and doesn't have as many of the tabby stripes on her. She is more aloof than Madonna is. She loves to run and play and will come up to visit with you, but doesn't snuggle as much as Madonna does but if you initiate it, she's all about it. 

Both of these babies will be spayed through the HSAC adoption program and will be UTD on shots! If you are interested in meeting these babies, please complete the form below.

Lily & Rocco

Rocco was pulled from the BAS with his two siblings, when he was only a day old. Due to complications, his feline mommy passed away and he and his two siblings were brought to the HSAC, where bottle feeding began. Sadly, one sibling passed away after a trip to the emergency vet when they stopped responding to the bottles and tube feeding. The HSAC then put out a request for a surrogate mom, and it just so happened we had a fan who saw the post who had a momma cat that had a litter and only one survived. Lily is the survivor. She was born on the same day that Rocco's litter was born. Boots, the surrogate was brought in and responded well to providing the nurturing and care that these babies needed to thrive. 

These kittens are now 11 weeks old and are ready for adoption. Raja, Rocco's brother has already found his forever home, with his foster mom!

Lily will be spayed and Rocco will be neutered and they will go to their forever home UTD on shots. They can be adopted together or separately.

She loves getting rubbed on. She isn't big on being held close, but she will come to you, lay down and roll around wanting attention and rubs. She's a very sweet girl and can be very vocal with you.

She is currently in foster care. 
Raleigh & Cary

Raleigh is an adorable orange tabby. He is curious and playful, and has no problems wrestling with his 2 year old foster brother (who doesn't realize he's not a wee kitten anymore!). He is very loving and purrs a lot! He likes to find little holes to nuzzle up in and take little naps!

Cary is a adorable Torti kitten! She is super playful and loving! She loves her canned food and to investigate. She is a purr monster and has an awesome purr "motor." She loves chasing the feather wand and will jump on your shoulder and relax if you let her. She gave her foster dad little nibbles on the ear when she was supervising his computer time, from his shoulder of course!

Raleigh and Cary are 10 weeks old and will go to their new home spayed/neutered and UTD on shots. They are currently in foster care and get along well with other cats.
