Meet BILLIE! This handsome
boy made his way to HSCO to
fi nd a new forever home. As far
as it’s known, he’s spent quite a
while as a stray. But in the short
time that he’s been at the shelter,
he’s adjusted well and comes up
to staff members for attention.
Billie loves gentle scratches on
his head and under his chin, as
he slowly warms up for even
more affection. Are you ready
for a new family member?
Come meet Billie!
