Animal Control Season 4 Synopsis

Animal Control Season 4 is a new season of the comedy series that follows a Seattle animal control unit as they navigate chaotic rescues, workplace politics, and complicated personal lives while dealing with animals that are often easier to understand than people.

The season opens with major structural upheaval as budget cuts force rival animal control precincts to merge, immediately creating tension, power struggles, and uneasy alliances within the team. Frank Shaw remains at the heart of the chaos, relying on his sharp intellect, deep knowledge, and almost instinctive ability to read animals to keep situations from spiraling out of control. As romantic relationships evolve, new personalities shake up the department, and professional boundaries blur, routine wildlife calls become catalysts for emotional growth, rivalry, and sharp workplace comedy. Season 4 leans further into character-driven storytelling while expanding the scope of the animal control world and raising the stakes both professionally and personally.
