FORT RUCKER, Ala. (WDNews) — Fort Rucker has a local winner after one of its residents was selected as a grand prize winner in the 2025 AAFES Holiday Pet Photo Contest.

Army & Air Force Exchange Service recently conducted the nationwide drawing. Two grand prize winners were selected across the continental United States, each receiving a $500 Exchange gift card. A Fort Rucker customer was one of the two winners.

The prize presentation took place at the Fort Rucker PX, where the winner received the award on Wednesday.

Congratulations were extended to Casey Baker Toth and her cat, Prescilla, who were named grand prize winners in the 2025 contest. Officials confirmed that only two grand prize winners were selected nationwide.

“Getting (Prescilla) into the sweater was the hardest thing… once I had her in it, I just had to place her somewhere… I don’t think I can ever do that again,” Baker Toth said.
