Get ready to purr with delight, because Meowy Mondays are debuting at Huntsville Botanical Garden starting April 1—no fooling! We’re opening our lush, vibrant garden paths to our feline friends and their humans every Monday. To join in the fun, make sure your kitty companion is either safely leashed or cozily tucked into a pet-approved carrier, stroller, or backpack. With a special cat admission of just $5, we’re embracing the joy and connection that comes from experiencing the natural world together.

Embark on a garden adventure with your furry companions every Thursday throughout the year, during regular Garden hours (Including Golden Hour). Join us for a pet-friendly exploration of nature’s beauty!
