Everyday in New Zealand, pets go missing. The reality is that many of these animals are never reunited with their owners, simply because of lack identification. A microchip is a tiny but powerful tool for being reunited with your pet if they get lost, or worse stolen. We've certainly heard some amazing stories from our clients who have been separated from their pets, and the microchip saved the day!
The process
I will insert a microchip about the size of a grain of rice using a sterile purpose built needle under your pet's skin, the process is easy and usually painless for your cat or dog. I can also upload your details to our national data base NZCAR.
It is your responsibility to provide microchip details to your local council.
It is a legal requirement to have your dog microchipped, and more districts in New Zealand are taking the law to include cats as well.
