What's happening?
The Best Friends mobile adoption vehicle will roll into seven communities as a way to help shelter and rescue partners throughout the Greater Houston area showcase their adoptable cats and dogs, according to an April 22 news release.
Adoptable pets onboard will have been spayed or neutered, have age-appropriate vaccines and will be microchipped. There will be no fee to adopt and adopters will get some goodies as well.
Quote of note
“Through the Adoptable Pets on Tour, Best Friends aims to not only support our shelter partners in achieving no-kill, but to promote pet adoption and make it an accessible option for everyone because pets belong in homes and not in shelters,” Deyra Galvan, lifesaving program manager with Best Friends Animal Society, said in a statement.
