Huntsville Animal Services: 2025 Rewind
As Huntsville continues to grow, so does the responsibility of caring for the abandoned or surrendered animals who depend on the community for support. In 2025, Huntsville Animal Services (HAS) focused on expanding community awareness and engagement, strengthening partner organization relationships and using data-driven social media strategies to improve outcomes for adoption and fostering.
In 2025, Huntsville Animal Services hosted 22 adoption events and participated in three community outreach events which brought pets and people together across the city. These efforts helped create more opportunities for animals to find homes while increasing public awareness about responsible pet ownership and animal welfare.
Behind the scenes, foster families played a vital role with 931 pets spending time in foster care, including foster placements, sleepovers and dog day-out experiences – accounting for 1,169 individual foster engagements. These temporary homes provided critical support for animals who needed extra care, recovery time or a welcome break from the shelter environment.

“What stands out most in 2025 isn’t just the numbers – it’s the people behind them,” said Huntsville Animal Services Director John Fischer. “From adopters and fosters to rescue partners and volunteers, this community continues to show up for animals in meaningful ways, and that support directly translates into more positive outcomes.”
HAS also supported Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and working cat efforts, assisting 627 cats as part of community-based population management programs.
