My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

My Home to Yours – Meet Storm

Storm is a 4½-year-old neutered male American Shorthair with a sleek, all-black coat and a big soft heart. He’s an indoor-only cat who is litterbox trained, up to date on vaccinations, and has been a beloved companion for the past four years.

Storm is a bit shy when meeting new people, but he warms up quickly and shows his affectionate, playful side. He enjoys interactive play like chasing a hair tie on a string or batting around his favorite toys, and when things are calm, he’s a sweet “big baby” who loves his person.

Storm’s family is seeking a new home for him due to redirected fear-based aggression caused by feral cats outside the home. Despite efforts to manage the situation, the ongoing stress has made it difficult for Storm and his owner, who is navigating a recent loss and living alone.

Storm would do best in:

  • A calm, indoor-only home

  • No other cats

  • A quiet environment where he can feel safe and secure

Storm remains in his current home while waiting for adoption, and his owner is open to meet-and-greets and a trial period to ensure the right fit.

My Home to Yours Program

Additional adoption info

We start with an application so our volunteers and fosters can have an idea of what the adopter is seeking. We ask that other pets in the home be spayed/neutered already if of appropriate age, current with rabies shots, and prefer use of heartworm preventive. We ask for a non-family personal reference as well as a vet reference to contact. We do home visits only if we feel it is vital to the pet's successful placement.

Applications are generally processed within 24 to 48 hours. Foster parents will contact the applicants to advise them of the progress of their application and to set up a meet and greet. Because volunteers work full-time jobs, contact is often made by email.

Fees to adopt range from $20 to $80 for cats, and from $75 to $300 for dogs. A contract requires that the adopter contact FOAC and return the pet to our care at any time if the adoption does not work out.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

FOAC vaccinates and deworms the dogs and cats at the Campbell County Shelter, which is open to the public from 12 to 5 weekdays and 11 to 4 on Saturdays. That address is 322 Dennis Riddle Drive, Rustburg, VA (behind Yellow Branch Elementary School.)

Available by appointment for visits are the dogs and cats noted as being in "foster care." We also visit Petsmart in Lynchburg, VA, with our adoptable dogs and cats at various times.

More about this rescue

Established in 2011. FOAC filled the vacancy left by the local humane society when they ended their association with Campbell County Animal Control. FOAC became its own entity in 2012 and has grown to 300 volunteers. We work in partnership with Campbell County Animal Control, and as their guests at the shelter. We do not have our own shelter nor overhead expenses, and no paid employees.
