Since 1993, the Michigan Humane Society has teamed up with the Detroit Zoo to play matchmaker with thousands of adoptable pets and their future besties. This semi-annual event, Meet Your Best Friend at the Zoo, has been successful in placing more than 25,000 dogs, cats, and rabbits with their humans. This year, more than 40 local animal welfare groups will be set up beneath a tented area in the zoo’s parking lot with a designated “get-acquainted” area to allow folks to bond with their potential new family member.
