A cooperative initiative with animal shelters across the country, Tour for Life helps save pets across America and reinforces the importance and advantages of adopting shelter cats and dogs. Since its inception in 2001, Tour for Life has placed thousands of needy animals with loving families.
On April 18th from 12:00 am-6:00pm, the Humane Society Madison County and North Shore Animal League America will host an exciting Pet Expo and adoption event at Petsmart-Westpointe Plaza in Columbus off Hillard Rome Road.

A few of these rescues are Beagles R Us, A.D.O.P.T., Colony Cat Rescue, and many more. In addition to finding loving homes for the animals, this event will inform the public to the many educational and lifesaving services available to the pet guardians of Central Ohio.

One of the first animal rescue agencies on the ground in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, the League rescued more than 1000 pets from the region, 790 have been adopted and 22 reunited with their families.
The League is home to the Alex Lewyt Veterinary Medical Center which provides 24-hour care for the pets sheltered at the League.
