May is Chip Your Pet Month, which encourages people to microchip their pets.
Pets can get a microchip through a quick procedure, and it offers a permanent source of identification for them.
If a pet goes missing and ends up at a shelter, they can scan the microchip and the owner’s contact information comes up.
Every animal adopted through Michigan Humane is microchipped, explained Lidia Vesterfelt with the nonprofit organization.
Michigan Humane currently has many cats and dogs that are looking for their forever home, including an adorable cat named Midge. Watch the video above to meet Midge.
