Update from Ernest: “I’m one month away from my adopt-iversary! I now have a new baby brother in the family and I am super careful with him, I don’t chase my cat sister as much anymore, and I love my hooman sister sooo much! Oh and I am willing to trade all of them for a bully stick.”

“Here’s an update on Glen now Petey. I adopted him on December 2, 2023 and he now has an amazing life. He goes everywhere with me. He loves his walks and chasing squirrels. He loves to eat cheese and chicken and of course his dog food. He has two great homes. He lives in Antioch and Belmont. He primarily lives in Antioch and we visit my 76-year-old Dad every other week for a few days.”

Barnaby was adopted and we already have an update: “Barnaby is doing great. He is starting to understand that we are his people and already seems pretty connected with Ozzie. He is eager to play, play, play with his new sister, Jett. We took him to get a bath today and he LOVED it! You were right, Barnaby needs some training but he is going to be a star. Our cats are not a fan of Barnaby yet but in time they most likely will be. Thank you for giving him so much love there, it really is evident.”

Senior duo Rocko & Miko found themselves at our shelter when their person died. They were adopted from us more than 10 years ago. Happily, friends of their owner flew to SF from Colorado to adopt them. Thank you!

Adoption update! Petra (now Coco) is living a happily spoiled life with her dad, Steve Adami. She was in her stroller about to enter Costco. She is 3 months old and getting bigger, and was so calm amidst the hustle and bustle around her. It was obvious he dotes on her so much and said she’s almost done with her puppy classes! What a proud girl dad! Her IG handle is @cocoinsf

Bernie the young conure was adopted last month after his previous owner died. We got an update from his adopter: “Bernie is such a beautiful bird and is doing great in training and very much loved.”

Big boy Tuna was adopted today after waiting patiently for almost 4 months! He took his beloved unicorn stuffy home with him and had a little celebration in the parking lot. Happy tails!

Adoption update! “Enzo was found all alone, in a Hunters Point sheet metal yard parking lot in February 2021, weighing 7 ounces and the great person who brought his tiny self to SFACC is our unknown hero. He checked out to be healthy and was put in Foster care via SFACC, and the rest is awesome history! Enzo was a pandemic parking lot adoption after his neutering (oh my goodness I am sure Enzo thought he was being Tutored not Neutered) I facetimed his Foster Mom on a Friday and went to ACC parking lot the next Tuesday. When Enzo adopted me, he weighed just 2 lbs and today he’s 14 pounds of Tuxedo love. He adores his Big sis Grappa. We love Enzo so much and he’s a therapy kitty cuz he keeps 10 year old Grappa young and me too.

Thank you so much SF ACC for fostering Enzo a  nd giving him a chance to live. We love life with Enzo Furrari! He’s meowvalous!”

Adoption update! Mittens was adopted a couple of weeks ago and we just got an update: “Hey SFACC Fam, it’s Mittens, but my dad now calls me Hank. He grew up learning to read through the stories of a nefarious farm dog called, “Hank the Cowdog” and gave me the name in his honor. I’m doing great! Dad takes me out every morning for a five-mile run to the top of twin peaks. It’s my favorite part of the day besides going to the dog park where I am an absolute star!!! I shine bright when playing tug o’ war with new dog friends, get compliments from the onlooking humans, and play nicely with everyone while getting my zoomies out.

I am so polite when on leash walking exactly by my dad’s side, if not two steps behind, although I must admit when I know we are going to the dog park I put all my strength into getting dad to move faster. Because I’m always staying physically active my indoor personality is really reserved and I spend most of my time in my dog bed by the office window or on the couch as a reward for being a good boy. We have our first day of puppy school coming up and my vet introduction appt too! I’ll let you know how those go. Nevertheless, Dad gave me my first bath at the local pet shop and he said I did great! Nevermind my shy little whine and side eye when he used the blow dryer instead of towels.

Thanks for taking care of me, giving Walker the chance to love me, and stay tuned for more updates! With gratitude and love,Hank a.k.a. Mittens a. a. k. a. Hanky Panky“

Playful pup Clyde found his forever family! Everyone was so excited to take him home. Looks like Clyde has a couple of new siblings to keep him busy.

Update: Fluffy mama cat Gigi (fka Chica) was adopted in 2019. She’s flourishing in her forever home, getting lots of quality cuddle time and looking gorgeous!

Our longest term resident Guinea pig Daytona has been adopted!

Update: “I wanted to send you a little update on how your friend Violet is doing since she came to live with me on Christmas Eve this past year.

First, she is now called Vivie as in Voluptuous Vivie, some times Vicious Vivie as she has limited patience for brushing and some handling but we don’t let it stop us from living the good life. I waited until today to message you as today Viv had her first appointment with Dr. Gervais, her new vet and we learned that she has lost a little weight. She is now weighing in at about 16.6 pounds, down from her previous 17! Yippee, that’s good news as Viv has been working very hard on her figure! While you can’t tell from the attached photos she is definitely feeling vivacious in her new life and I am so, so pleased she found me!”

UPDATE: “I wanted to give y’all an update on Huckleberry. We renamed him to Bigby. (He is quite the Big boy.) We celebrated his 3 months recently with some froyo! He’s been getting along super well with our 7 and 4 year olds, and we are able to take him on loads of errands and adventures.

Also, turns out he was 73 lbs and vet says he’s closer to 1 year old! haha. He’s got that big puppy energy, but a really well mannered one. Outside of a little bit of dog reactivity that we’ve been making progress on, Bigby boy is turning out to be the perfect family cow, I mean dog.”
