📰 News we're reading
• Pets of the Week: Mochi and Mouse are ready for adoption (dailybreeze.com) — You can meet Mouse, a playful black Lab mix, right now at spcaLA’s South Bay Pet Adoption Center on Yukon Avenue in Hawthorne, where she’s waiting for a family who loves fetch and belly rubs. The feature also spotlights Mochi, a social cat available at the group’s Long Beach village, giving South Bay residents two nearby chances to add a new companion. 
• Fusus surveillance spreads as resistance to Flock grows (prismreports.org) — Hawthorne’s police surveillance network now ties more than 3,700 cameras into a Fusus-powered system, giving officers broad live access to public and private video feeds. The article compares Hawthorne with other cities rapidly expanding similar networks and amplifies civil liberties advocates who warn that such integrated platforms quietly deepen police power and long‑term community surveillance.
