Heartwarming Story: A Good Reason to Microchip!

The only caveat I have on this: please if you DO have your pet microchipped, register them! I have seen a few cases of a "stray" found with a chip but no address connected to it! 


Microchipping is another inexpensive, safe, and easy insurance policy for your pet. Your pet is not "tracked" with the chip. The chip has a number that is connected to the address where you live, which can easily be changed when needed - on line or via phone!


All of my 7 pets - 6 indoor only kitties and 1 dog - are micro chipped!  This "procedure" is simply an injection of a chip, using a little larger bore needle than we use for vaccines. It can be done during a spay/neuter for those younger animals or anytime during puppy or kitten hood or the older pet who has found a new home!


Never Give Up Hope If You Have a Microchip!
