No loving pet parent ever wants to imagine a scenario in which their beloved animal companion becomes lost. Unfortunately, these things happen. The best way to keep your pet safe is by planning ahead. Microchip identification provides convenient, affordable, permanent protection and peace of mind that standard forms of ID, such as collars and tags, cannot. Don’t take chances with your pet’s safety – invest in permanent identification with Dr. Kathy’s Veterinary Care today.
A microchip is a tiny device that is about the diameter of a pencil lead. This device is encoded with a number that corresponds to a database where your contact information is stored. Should your pet become separated from you, the area where the chip is implanted can be scanned at any local animal shelter or veterinary clinic. The information gathered can then help reunite you both safely for a happy ending.
Implanting a microchip is fast, easy and virtually painless. The process is completed using a local anesthetic for the comfort of your pet. Once implanted, the chip will remain safely under your pet’s skin for the rest of his or her life. You’ll never have to do it again. More importantly, you’ll never have to worry about what will happen to your pet should he or she become separated from you.
Many pet owners are pleasantly surprised to learn that microchip implantation is incredibly affordable. Dr. Kathy’s Veterinary Care offers this service for a minimal charge. It can be performed either during a wellness visit, while your companion is anesthetized for surgery, or at any other time of your choice.
