Following the tornado, many pets were seen running free in the neighborhoods, looking for their families. That's when the Central Oklahoma Humane Society stepped in to help.
Volunteers took in these homeless animals and gave them shelter. And now, they are helping these animals find their families.
According to the Humane Society, volunteers took in 109 dogs and cats. So far, 44 dogs have been reunited with their owners.
If you are missing a pet or have found one that was displaced by the storms, call the Humane Society at (405) 286-1229. You can check here Norman FarmMarket or okclostpets.com.
