Mobile Adoptable-Animal Shelter Vehicle (MAASV)

Recreational vehicles retrofitted for adoption events have been in use by large humane societies for years. Mobile groomers and spay/neuter clinics make good use of rvs, too.
But what if some of these vehicles were designed to serve as temporary shelters, as well? A MAASV solution to the big problem of overcrowding in shelters.

Customizing vehicles to provide safe, comfortable, self-contained mobile living spaces for adoptable shelter animals would facilitate the convenient meeting of the right animals with the right people. Designed to be homelike rather than institutional, animal adoption/shelter vehicles would minimize the number of times a shelter animal has to adjust to a new environment before finding its adopter.  The mobile animal adoption/shelter vehicle could be any of several sizes, from delivery van to bakery truck to bus to rv to eighteen-wheel semi-trailer truck. The vehicles, always attended by at least one staff member, could circulate among the parking lots of various locations, including parks, events, pet supply stores, animal shelters, etc., and every night could be parked at a stable home location.
