No Kill Huntsville is an animal welfare advocacy coalition formed in 2012 to help people who live and work in Huntsville learn about issues related to animal sheltering toward the end of helping Huntsville become a No Kill Community. While that goal may seem unattainable, it truly is possible with the help of an informed and energized public who understand how they can be part of bringing about drastic and dynamic change simply through what amounts to an attitude adjustment.
It has been said that people in "the South" cannot achieve animal welfare reform due to something called "the Bubba Factor." This is a dismissive and critical description which implies that people from our area are simple-minded and have antiquated attitudes about animals.
It is our belief that Huntsville can become a No Kill Community and truly be "the Star of Alabama" - a shining example for other areas to follow as they see how much we can accomplish by working together. We are progressive. We are proud. We are capable of great things.
Please join us.
