North Shore Animal League America’s 2014 Tour For Life

The North Shore Animal League America’s 2014 Tour For Life is the world’s largest national cooperative life-saving mobile pet adoption event and it's coming to T-Town.

The concept for the tour was conceived fourteen years ago by Animal League America – the world’s largest no-kill animal rescue and adoption organization. In partnership with PURINA ONE®, Tour for Life is aimed at reinforcing the importance and advantages of shelter pet adoptions and familiarizing communities with their local shelter.

The tour will make a stop at the University Mall parking lot in Tuscaloosa on Thursday, April 3rd and will be operating from 2p-7p. They're partnering with Tuscaloosa Metro Animal Shelter for a special life-saving event.

In addition to having adoptable shelter dogs, cats, puppies and kittens the event will also offer information on the benefits of adopting shelter pets, behavioral education, and special services available to pet owners at Tuscaloosa Metro Animal Shelter. A Spay/Neuter Clinic based in Birmingham will also be participating in the event.

North Shore Animal League America’s 2014 Tour For Life in a press release said,

From the beginning of March to mid-May, Tour For Life will travel the length of the United States from North to South and East to West in four “shelters on wheels”, helping shelter and rescue groups, in 52 cities and 26 states bring awareness to their organizations and find homes for the adorable adoptable animals in their care. Last year, Tour For Life 2013 saved the lives of over 2,000 animals across the country.
