“I wanted to reach out and give an update – This is Banshee’s (formerly known as Rose) 1-year “gotcha” day anniversary. As soon as I saw her posted by SFACC, I knew I had to come in and meet her! Once I did I was immediately hooked and didn’t need to see any other kitties…also because if I had, I likely would’ve adopted them as well! She started out a skinny lanky little weirdo and has grown into a still lanky, still little, but less skinny weirdo. Here are some pics–from her first day exploring her new hallways, to lounging on her fancy cardboard couch and keeping watch from her cat tree. The last year has flown by and we look forward to many more together. Banshee says hello!”

Update for Swizzle (fka Suzy) adopted as a puppy in February 2023: “Her name is now Swizzle – because all Pibbles need silly names – and is quite calm, quiet & ridiculously friendly. She wants to meet everyone! She still has a few things to learn but has settled into the daily routine quite nicely. She’s 65lbs, about 20lbs more than her brother, Boone. Her days are spent loafing around in the sun, or on the bed, or the couch, or wherever Boone happens to be napping of course. She likes her walks and trips to the beach, or hikes, but she really loves to snuggle under the blankets on the couch.”
Adoption update! “Thank you, again, for saving my Quince’s (now Quincy’s) life. We just celebrated our one-year adoption day anniversary. He has brought me so much joy, laughter, love, adventures, and shenanigans each and every day since then. I am and will always be full of gratitude for your team and his foster mother.”

“I adopted Freddy, a very large guinea pig of unknown age, less than a year ago. My habit is to adopt small seniors who’ve been surrendered to your facility, when I can, and give them the best retirement I can come up with.
Freddy lived in a Radio Flyer wagon in my apartment, a studio at Opera Plaza in SF, until today, when the vet euthanized him as he had an untreatable mass in his belly that was only getting worse. He as always was stoic and serene, I was very sad to see him go. He was my friend.
Just wanted to let you know, especially the ACC officer who’d fostered him in her home before he came to me. He was much loved, and I think did get that good retirement we’d hoped for, just a bit shorter than expected. Thank you for giving me that opportunity. I’ll be by again in a while.”

“I found Arthur (A485910) exactly a year ago, dropped him off at SFACC, and eventually adopted him. We ended up calling him Luke. As you might remember, he had many health issues, including injuries on his hind legs, foxtails all over his body, and foxtails up his nose (as it turned out later). It was scary at the beginning to see if he would pull through, if he would get along with our other dog, and if we would be able to train him (he didn’t seem house-trained at all). But he has turned out truly amazing and we can’t imagine our life without him, he is an inspiration for me – how positive he was despite I can only imagine the pain and uncertainty he was going through. He put on 25 pounds since last year and won the second-best ears at SF Dogfest.
Thank you for doing what you do (special thanks to you, Anacani, for helping a bunch even after adoption) and caring for all the animals in need. We appreciate it very much. See you next year. Here are some pictures of Luke with his brother Rory.”
