Michigan Humane Society takes in several animals displaced by Hurricane Dorian
(WXYZ) — As folks prepare for the potential damaging winds and flooding Hurricane Dorian could bring, cats and dogs in some Florida shelters are being evacuated.
Several animals are heading to metro Detroit to stay safe and find their forever home.
“The folks here in Michigan are just so amazingly welcoming of these animals and willing to provide them whatever they need in order to help them get their fresh start,” said Anna Chrisman with the Michigan Humane Society.
The animals were flown into Willow Run Airport Sunday afternoon. More than 100 cats and dogs are out of harm’s way.
“These storms are super unpredictable and we cannot guarantee that brick and mortar locations are going to be safe,” Chrisman said.
The animals are heading to various shelters including the Michigan Humane Society.
The organization will take in about 20 animals that will be ready for adoption as soon as the middle of the week. By emptying Florida shelters, it also frees up space for animals after the hurricane passes.
