Each year, Huntsville Animal Services saves thousands of homeless pets in the Huntsville area by providing temporary shelter, food and veterinary care to animals in need. The work of Huntsville Animal Services also includes preventative steps to reduce pet overpopulation through facilitation and connection to spay and neuter assistance programs.

Now, it’s easier than ever to support these efforts through the Huntsville Animal Services Foundation. Donations are used to care for shelter pets, foster pets, and animals in need. All financial donations go into the Care for Shelter Pets fund.

Huntsville Animal Service Foundation is an IRS-approved 501(c)(3) non-profit, tax-exempt charitable organization (Tax ID #82-0929609). Donations are tax-deductible.
