You never know when an emergency may strike such as a flood or other disaster so you should be prepared in case you have to evacuate, and that includes preparing to evacuate your pets.

They’re cuddly, they’re sweet, and they might just become your best friends. Hundreds of cute animals in need of forever homes will be at a huge event this weekend, and you get the chance to meet them all. The Michigan Humane “Meet Your New Best Friend at the Law Firm Adoption Event” is Saturday September 10th from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

This week marks National Volunteer Appreciation Week, so it’s a great time to say thanks to all the volunteers, including those at Michigan Humane.

COVID-19 has left many local families with less to spend, but Michigan Humane is hoping not to let that stop pet owners from providing basic necessities for their pets. Anna Chrisman, with Michigan Humane, was on Live in the D to explain how you can help local animals in need this winter. Chrisman said anyone can give Michigan Humane a call if you ever see a pet in need of support. As the Pet of the Week, Pippa’s adoption fees will be covered by the Mike Morse Law Firm. To hear more from Chrisman and Pippa about how you can find your own perfect pet, check out the video above.

It’s the season of New Year’s Resolutions, and this year why not include your pets in your 2021 health and fitness goals? If you’re looking to eat healthier in 2021, it may be time to help your pet do the same. Ask if your pet is on the best diet possible for their age, breed, and medical condition. Chrisman was also back with our pet of the week, a ten month old black domestic shorthair named Jyn. As our Pet of the Week, Jyn’s adoption fees will be covered by the Mike Morse Law Firm.

The holidays are fast approaching, but some of the festive fun can actually be dangerous for our pets. Anna Chrisman from Michigan Humane described things to look out for over the holidays. She said to watch out for ribbons, gift wrap and bows that you’re tossing out on Christmas morning. Some holiday plants are also a hazard for pets including poinsettias, cacti, and real Christmas trees. To see Kimchi and hear more from Michigan Humane, watch the video above.
