Microchipping for cats can assist in reuniting you with your pet if they ever go missing or are injured.
Microchipping Services for Dogs
The cat microchip is placed under the skin at the back of the neck, much like a regular injection, and is about the size of a large grain of rice. This form of identification is permanent and will stay with your cat for life.
Microchipping for Cats Near You
Each cat microchip has a unique number linked to your personal details and your cat's information, which is stored in a national database. If you're unsure whether your cat already has a microchip, don’t worry. Our team at Boundary Vets can check for you using a scanner, and we always check for an existing chip before implanting a new one. Sedation is not needed for the procedure, as the microchip is very small and causes minimal discomfort.
If your lost cat is taken to a vet, animal charity, or similar organisation, the staff will use a scanner to read the chip, locate your contact details, and reunite you with your pet. It's essential to keep your information up to date, so if you change your address or phone number, please let us know. All of our cat microchips comply with international standards (ISO) and are recognised even abroad.
Please get in touch with us if you would like more information on microchipping your cat; we are here to answer any queries you may have.
