We got a loving tribute to one of our alumni: “Hi there. I adopted a pit bull from you nearly 13 years ago (11.12.13) and want to share that he was the greatest joy and glue to our family. He had so many animal friends and loved everyone he met along the way. Today, we peacefully said goodbye to Titus, aka Pig Man. He was surrounded by his family and so much love, as he always was. We’re all proud to have given him an amazing life and are grateful SFACC picked him up as a stray in GG Park all those years ago. He really made our family complete and I’m forever honored to have been his🥹💔🪽 thank you.”

Smokey has gone home! He’s going to be living with a feline sister.

Lovebug lap cat Leila came to the shelter a month ago with her kitten and has gone home to soak up lots of love from her new mom!

This young lady and her mom adopted Trixie (new name Brownie) to be friends with her guinea pig Cookie! She wants to be a volunteer here when she gets older.

Adoption update! Sweet little guinea pig Gillian (left) was recently adopted to be the new buddy for a guinea pig who was grieving after she lost her partner. “We just wanted to let you know that Gillian (who we’ve renamed “Lily”) is doing great in her new home. The bonding with her new buddy Sophie has gone very well and they are enjoying hanging out, eating hay & veggies, and getting cuddles together. We’ve taken them both to the vet recently and Gillian/Lily is in great health due to the excellent care she got with your team–thank you!…we can see how much Lily has brighten [Sophie’s] days. Meanwhile, Lily seems to wake up pop-corning, totally excited about her new digs and family.”

Sweet Miss Gizmo (you can see her face peeking out of the carrier) was adopted after waiting a month and a half.

Adoption update! Charlie–formerly known as Saffron–was adopted back in March. Her adopter says she’s doing great, loves the beach, and is somewhat of an escape artist, but she loves Charlie so much.

April 2026

We recieved a very touching adoption update: “I adopted Eskimo back in June 2010! His original shelter name was Mortimer. This week, at almost 18 years old, Eski crossed over the rainbow bridge. I just wanted to share my gratitude for the life-saving work that SFACC does, and I’m so lucky to have been able to spend so many years with Eski.”

Sweet volunteer fave Tuna was adopted in 3/24 and we just got a great update: He’s now named Chewy. His dad reports he could not be happier with Chewy and that all he wants to do is love, love, love. He’s the same sweet and gentle guy he always was. And as you can see Chewy enjoys watching TV!

Here’s an update about Bruce Bruce, the bulldog formerly known as Chungus who was adopted in December: “Bruce Bruce is still learning his manners but he is thriving.”

“Just wanted to share an update on Cassian, who I adopted in June of last year. He just celebrated his 1st birthday and he’s doing great!”

Young bunny charmer Charlie was adopted today! (His baby picture from when he arrived at the shelter is in the lower right.)

This sweet cat was adopted by his finder. He was found as a stray with an injured tail. Our vet team amputated the injured tip of his tail when he was also neutered. After healing nicely and no one coming to claim him, his finder’s family was very excited to bring him home. His new name is Mochi. Happy tails!
