Not notable and doesn't meet WP:NCORP for a standalone article. Of the 7 citations in the article, 5 are primary sources (from hshv.org themselves). Of the remaining two citations, one is about a bond related to their municipal contract (boring city business stuff) and one covers HSHV (the subject). A WP:BEFORE search finds a few recent news articles offering assistance to people during COVID-19 or covering this or that rescue of a particular neglect or abuse incident (all routine animal shelter stuff), but there is no real "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject" to satisfy NCORP.

- Delete as per nom. There are thousands of animal shelters around the world doing excellent jobs; this one is no different. William Harris (talk) 08:16, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I am finding significant and ongoing coverage for this organization that was formed in 1896 including an NBC Today Show citation. I have added some of these citations and deleted some text that is not needed as well as changed one header and added another and deleted text for neutral tone issues. This article should be kept for its notability and more citations could be added to improve the article. BrikDuk (talk) 10:42, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete No evidence for being any more notable than any other animal rescue organization. Also, the article reads as being very promotional (addresses given in text, etc.).--SilverTiger12 (talk) 01:17, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Delete - Most of the coverage is either not independent, or is hyper-local. The exceptions are the TODAY piece, which provides no encyclopedic information about the topic in that it only mentions where the cats originated, the Michigan Radio piece, which only states that the topic wants to halt a deer cull, and provides no other information about the topic, and MLive, which I believe counts toward GNG but that is only one source with reliable, significant, independent coverage of the topic. The only other possible source I found was [1], and although I would normally consider something appearing in the Detroit Free Press to count towards GNG, this particular piece appears in a "local" section, which was not distributed to all subscribers. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 15:29, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
