Manager & Mascot

Celly was welcomed on to the History, Highways, and Haunts, LLC team in April of 2022. After being a stray cat on the streets of Huntsville, Celly made her way to the Historic Scott County Jail and was met with a warm bed, a stocked food bowl, and all of the toys that a kitty could want. In June of 2022, Celly was promoted to head greeter and tour guide, and visitors began asking for her by name. In July of 2022, Celly was promoted again, and she officially became the mascot of the Historic Scott County Jail. With pictures of Celly gaining popularity on social media, the community of Huntsville and visitors to the area have embraced this spunky and out-going gal!
