Josh Norem – The Furrtographer

Josh Norem, The Furrtographer, is one of the most amazing animal photographers around. He has that very special knack and ability to capture an animal’s unique traits and personality. Josh has used his gift for many years to showcase our shelter animals as the superstars they are. We’ve been so lucky to have him as part of the SFACC team, photographing animals as well as events for SFACC. So many of our shelter animals have found homes because of his wonderful volunteer service. Unfortunately for us, Josh has moved to the Sacramento area and is no longer able to work with us. We wish him the best of luck and will miss him terribly.
Thank you for everything Josh!

Here are a few of Josh’s portraits that helped these SFACC animals get adopted…

March 2019

In March, we had 74 Adoptions! 33 cats, 25 dogs and 33 small animals (fish, rabbits, and guinea pigs).

An update on Fluffy bun Moe, adopted in December:
“He’s a super special little guy, and we’ve been thrilled to have him as a part of our family. He’s been bonded with our other rescue, Pasha who is now 5 years old.
Many thanks for helping to get him adopted!”

Darling pup Wallaby has
left the building!

A catastic update! “Migñon (formerly Marmalade) came home from ACC with us in July. She’s a super smart, super engaged kitty who responds to about 10 commands (she’s an ace at clicker training). She’s gained 3 pounds to make her a nice healthy weight. She’s a sweetheart who has her own opinions about everything (of course!) Thank you for bringing her into our lives!”

Cutie pie, Yam (now named, “Cowboy”), has gone home with his new older sister, Lola (left), and his mom and dad! Lola was smitten with Yam, a true love match. So excited for this adorable family!

A great Caturday update: 
“Bonded pair Hennessy and Tennessee, formerly Bobby and Teddy(adopted July of last year) are loving their forever family—and chair! They share bonded snugs in their favorite chair every day.”
Thank you for adopting a bonded pair and giving them such a snuggly life!

We’re thrilled that wee
pup Bingo found her forever family! Looks like lots of love and fun are in
store! Her new name is Bailey.

ACC grad/Muttville adoption update on Logan, now Luca: “He is amazingly happy and adjusting so well here! Our female cocker loves being around him! I actually went out and bought a large Labrador-sized bed today because they always sleep together and it melted our hearts last night when they immediately crawled in together and slept all night in the same bed. Thank you and everyone there for making this happen. I just had this feeling he was what we and Ruby were looking for, and it feels so good to see that he feels happy and safe now. Thanks again, David and Paul”
