About me

Love kittens but want them bigger? Hardy was hanging around on his finder’s porch with an injured paw loving up a storm. Unfortunately, he was too energetic and rough for their resident feline’s tastes, so he’s looking for a home of his own to fill with fun! With people, Hardy is affectionate and loving, though he is reportedly more of a by-your-side cuddler than a lap cat. He can mouth and try to wrestle people when he’s feeling excited and playful, so good manners around play is encouraged. He’s an overall outgoing guy charming everyone he meets!

Due to his stray background, we don’t know how Hardy feels about living with dogs, cats, and other kids. His initial reaction to the cats in the adoptive home was neutral, but the girls did not enjoy his attempts to chase, wrestle, and otherwise get wild, so he may need a playmate who is more tolerant of kitten-type shenanigans. Hardy will surely breathe life into any home!

When Lauren arrived at the York County SPCA in October 2025, she weighed just 26 pounds, nearly half her healthy weight. The two-and-a-half-year-old pit bull was severely emaciated, with parasites, organ damage, and a heart murmur caused by extreme neglect. Our medical team followed a careful recovery plan to stabilize her and rebuild her strength. Lauren got her second chance, but her story is not rare. In 2024, YCSPCA officers conducted 1,983 welfare checks, leading to 503 cruelty investigations and 102 convictions.
