🥜 Go nuts for Peanut!🥜

This sweet 2-year-old girl is ready to find her forever home! 🐾

Peanut is a social but slightly shy kitty who takes her time warming up to new people and places. Most days, you can find her cozied up in her favorite bed, napping the day away 😴. But don’t be surprised when she stretches out to say hello!

She absolutely adores head pets and is super affectionate. Peanut would do best in a calm and quiet environment, and she might even coexist beautifully with another cat. 🐱💕

If you're looking for a loving companion who enjoys the simple pleasures of life, Peanut is your girl!

🐾 Meet Cash! 💸

This charming 5-year-old pup with an adorable snaggle tooth is ready to steal your heart! 🐶❤️ A true social butterfly, Cash loves meeting new friends, both human and furry. He’s great with kids and other dogs, making him the perfect addition to any family.

Cash enjoys his walks and is well-behaved on a leash, but he can get a bit overly excited sometimes—so he’d thrive with a doggie buddy to help him learn! If you’re looking for joy and companionship, Cash is ready to join your family—could that be you?

Apply to adopt Cash today!

We are so excited to announce that our Content Coordinator, Warren Fosler, has been awarded our first ever “Greatest Of All Time” award (a.k.a. the GOAT 🐐) here at HSWM!

If you follow our social media, you are no stranger to Warren’s extraordinary work. From writing songs about our adoptable animals (yes- he writes, produces, AND sings them🎶), to coming up with creative ways to showcase our work in the community, Warren goes above and beyond for the pets we serve and our shelter team.

We could not think of a more deserving person to present our first ever GOAT award to than Warren. Thank you, Warren, for everything you do!

P.s., We hope he makes a mix-tape of all the adoptable animal songs he has made soon! 🎤🐾

Mia is also loyal to her core. It may take some time to earn her trust, but once you're in her circle, she will show you just how loving she can be! Apply to adopt Mia at: https://bit.ly/43IgMv2
