TUCSON, Ariz. (13 News) - The Humane Society of Southern Arizona is helping to save dozens of homeless animals.

They’re serving as the hub for a multi-state rescue effort that will give nearly 50 dogs and cats a second chance at getting adopted in states where families are waiting.

Cats were flown into Tucson on Saturday as a pit stop on their way to states where the adoption demand is bigger. Dozens of animals who are currently in overcrowded shelters will soon be flown to states where the need for adoptable pets is needed.

“Transport is a really critical part of live saving,” said Kristin Barney, the CEO of the Humane Society of Southern Arizona. “There are some communities that have adopters that don’t have pets to match them with and some communities that have too many pets.”
