Huntsville’s Pawsitive Outreach Community Event Set to Support Pet Owners

Mark your calendars, pet lovers! On February 22, the vibrant city of Huntsville is pulling out all the stops to support our furry friends and their humans with a delightful community event. Hosted by the enthusiastic team at Huntsville Animal Services in collaboration with Helping Animals Without Shelter (HAWS), this gathering promises to be a fun-filled day for everyone.

When and Where

The event is scheduled for Saturday, February 22, and it will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.. You’ll want to head over to Tractor Supply located at 3240C Memorial Pkwy. NW right here in Huntsville, Alabama. It’s not just a shopping trip; it’s a chance to lend a paw to our community!

Your Pets Will Thank You

Attendees will have access to some fantastic perks. For starters, free spay/neuter vouchers will be available to help tackle the pet population issue. The event organizers understand that responsible pet ownership starts with necessary procedures for our four-legged friends. Plus, there’s a bonus – free dog food will be distributed, but hurry, it’s available only while supplies last!

Getting Ready for Flea Season

Don’t let those pesky fleas ruin your pet’s joy! As part of the day’s offerings, pet owners can also pick up flea and tick preventatives. Staff members from Huntsville Animal Services will be on hand to assist with signing up families for the new Pet Food Pantry, designed to provide ongoing support to those in need of pet food.

Feeding Hungry Bellies

Speaking of food, if you’re feeling a little peckish while there, look out for meals of hot dogs, chips, water, and cookies available for just $1! It’s not only an affordable treat but also a way to sustain your energy as you enjoy the various activities planned throughout the day.

Community Outreach Amid Shelter Overcrowding

Now, let’s talk about a pressing issue. At the moment, the Huntsville Animal Services shelter is bursting at the seams with pets needing loving homes. The increased demand for shelter space has been driven by a notably high intake of animals, which has led to reduced kennel availability. This outreach event aims to address the situation while fostering community support for pets and their families.

Adopt a New Family Member

If you’re considering welcoming a new furry friend into your home, this is the perfect opportunity! For a limited time, there’s a special adoption fee of just $14 for all dogs, which includes vaccinations and spaying/neutering. Why not give a deserving pet the chance they need in a loving home?

Helping Hands at the Ready

Dr. Melissa Horne, a local veterinarian, has raised concerns about the impact shelter overcrowding might have on animal welfare. Fortunately, the community is stepping up to make a difference. Not only can you adopt, but there are also fostering services available for short-term care of pets at the shelter.

Community Impact Already Seen

This initiative has already shown its effectiveness—since the opening of the new Pet Food Pantry, over 30 individuals have utilized its services! To receive food from the pantry, families must provide a valid ID and proof of residence in Madison County.

Join in the Fun!

This event is an incredible example of community spirit and compassion. So, grab your furry friends, bring your family, and come down to Tractor Supply on February 22. Let’s strengthen our bonds, support one another, and ensure that every pet has the chance for a happy and healthy life. See you there!
