🚨 Monday’s Most Wanted at HSBC 🚨
Featuring two Feline Felons this week!

🐾Names: Pixie and Edna🐾
Charged with: Tearing through the shelter playroom in hot pursuit of each other like they are in the Grand Prix. Other cats have filed complaints about “chaotic energy” and “disruption of nap time.”

While Pixie and Edna aren’t bonded partners in crime, they do share a love for play, mayhem, and each other’s company. But they’d each be happy to commit their next caper with you as their accomplice. These girls are also both known to be very good snugglers!😼

🚓 Ready to adopt one of these adorable fugitives?
Fill out the application below to start the process to meet Pixie, Edna, or both—but be warned: they may steal your heart. www.hsbcpets.com/adopt

🐾 Meet Connie – Your Shy, Snuggly Window Watcher 🌤️

Connie is a beautiful 4-year-old kitty with a quiet heart and a gentle soul. Originally adopted from our shelter as a kitten, she’s now back with us through no fault of her own—her family had to move and couldn’t bring her along.

Connie is the definition of shy-but-sweet. She may take a little time to warm up, but once she does, she’s incredibly affectionate and will happily curl up on the couch, windowsill, or your lap (if you’re lucky). She’s used to both men and women, has lived with cats and dogs, and even did okay with older kids—though she prefers to avoid young children and their unpredictable energy.

🌟 Connie’s Highlights:
✔️ Timid at first, affectionate once comfortable
✔️ Great with other cats and respectful dogs
✔️ Good with older, calm kids (4+)
✔️ Litter trained and uses a scratching post
✔️ Tolerates grooming (in small doses!)
✔️ Loves soft spots to nap and windows to watch the world go by
✔️ Likes to be picked up when she trusts you

Connie is looking for a calm, cozy home with a patient adopter who will give her the space she needs to feel safe—and the love she’ll quietly ask for once she does.

📩 Apply today to bring home a gentle companion with a heart full of love and a soft spot for sunny naps.

🎉 Happy Feline Friday! 🎉

Say hello to our purr-fectly adorable new arrivals: Cloudy and her kittens, Chance and Meatballs! 😻 That’s right — it’s “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs,” and they just might be the sweetest little weather forecast you’ll ever meet!

Cloudy is a quiet, talkative 1-year-old mama who’s adjusting to indoor life after living mostly outside. She’s timid with new situations but absolutely loves treats, lap time, and peaceful vibes. Her kittens are still working on their litter training, but they’re making great progress and learning fast!

✔ Good with kids
✔ Friendly with both men and women
✔ Could learn to live with cats and dogs with proper introductions
✔ Scratch post users, not furniture destroyers
✔ Cute, cuddly, and ready for adoption and foster-to-adopt

🌤️🐾 Apply today to meet with our amazing cats and kittens and bring your new feline friend home! 💙

Looking for a new pocket pet for your home? Sid and Simon are STILL waiting! These two handsome boys deserve a loving home to spend their days instead of being around all the scary sounds and smells here at the shelter. And their adoption fees have been sponsored, so they are now FREE to their forever home!

🐹 Meet Sid – The Drama Bean with Opinions
Sid is a fluffball with strong feelings about snack time and being picked up (spoiler: he’d prefer you didn’t). While not a fan of cuddles, he’ll happily squeak his commentary from the comfort of his hidey house. He’s been around kids, cats, and dogs, and he handles it all with the quiet, suspicious judgment of a tiny, furry grandpa. He’s not looking to be a lap pig—he’s looking for someone who respects boundaries and is good at refilling the lettuce. Frequently.

🐹 Meet Simon – Master of Side-Eye and Speedy Hideaways
Simon may not love being handled, but he does love snacks, tunnels, and watching you like he’s planning something. (He’s not. He just likes the mystery.) Also 4 years old, Simon is Sid’s less vocal but equally sassy roommate. He’s been around kids, cats, and dogs, and prefers his social interactions through the safety of a hay pile. Simon is the strong, silent type—until you open a bag of greens. Then, he’s an opera singer.

Simon and Sid are looking for a calm, patient home where they can be admired, fed, and occasionally judged from behind their hay huts. Handle with snacks, not hands. 😉

☀️💦 Splish, Splash, Bath Time Bash! 💦☀️

Maylark and Mayridge are living their best lives in the summer heat — nothing beats a pool day full of bubbles, splashes, and belly flops! 🐾🛁

Whether it’s a refreshing soak or just an excuse to lounge in style, these two are always down for a sudsy soak and some sibling playtime. Bonus points for that post-bath zoomie energy! 🐶💨

We’re not saying they’ve mastered the art of summer relaxation… but we are saying they’ve claimed the title of poolside pros. 🌊👑
