Leopard gecko found near Hattiesburg Public Library
I found a leopard gecko this afternoon around 3:30pm outside the Hattiesburg Public Library on Main Street. It's about 6 inches long from snout to tail, sandy tan with irregular dark brown spots and a bright orange tail. There's a small white patch on the back near the left shoulder, and the tail looks a little ragged from shedding. It stayed calm in my hands, so I tucked it into a small plastic container with air holes. I know how upsetting it would be to lose a pet like this, so I'm hoping to reunite it with its person soon. If anyone recognizes it, please message me through the app and we'll arrange a safe handoff.

Inside I saw a spiral notebook, a folded photo of a dog, and a receipt from a local bookstore dated last week. I know this bag probably means a lot to its owner, so if this is yours, tell me where you’d like to meet around the library area and I’ll head out to return it soon.
Blue inhaler found outside CVS on Hardy Street
Found a small inhaler on the sidewalk outside CVS on Hardy Street this afternoon around 3:15pm.

It was just a few steps from the bus stop by the Forrest General Hospital entrance, tucked against the curb. It seems like someone relies on it daily, so I'm hoping to return it to its owner. If this is yours, drop me a note and we can arrange a quick pickup near CVS.

Blue-yellow budgie with white face, missing
I'm really worried about my blue-yellow budgie. Yesterday around 3pm, he slipped out of his cage when I opened the window by the library on Hardy Street near the USM campus in Hattiesburg. He's tiny, about the size of a soda can, with a bright blue body, yellow belly, and a white face. There's a small red leg band with the number 42 on his right leg, and you can spot a small white patch on his left wing when he preens. He's usually super friendly and chatty, and he loves millet spray; he's been part of my life for years, so this is really stressing me out. If anyone spots him, please message me through the site — I’d be forever grateful to get him back.
