Are pets chipped in Chipping Norton? :-0

(That's lowering the tone of the thread. Naughty step for me then!)

It is law here to have domestic animals chipped and registered with the local council. My little dog was a rescue dog and that was done before we bought her home as well as being desexed.

In response to AnnCardiff we bought the cat flap that reads microchips off Amazon.

Have sent AnnCardiff a pm.

Agree with all.
Mine are chipped and spayed. They are not insured as no insurer will take them on at 13 and 10 yrs plus an epileptic. They are not tagged as they have harnesses and not collars. Although I could name tag their harnesses the same way that I have their jab tags on there. *Good Thinking will do that* Although if ever my dogs are off it means they have slipped their harness.

I agree that road kill should be scanned and I do wish that owners who allow their dogs to roam the streets would show jab tags on collars, actually I wish they wouldn´t let their animals roam the streets but that´s another debate.

As it is ALL domestics pets in Spain should be micro chipped as well as vaccinated against rabies.

All 4 of our cats snipped and chipped. 2 toms and 2 Queens We would be heartbroken if any went missing. All pets should be snipped as not only unwanted babies they are much cleaner in habits especially the Toms.

Always get mine snipped, but haven't had the ones I have now chipped!
I had a couple of cats chipped in the past - both disappeared without trace :-(
As far as I'm aware, one went to live on the allotments, the other was stolen.

where do you get a cat flap that reads micro chips please? my lovely pussums is snipped and chipped, but next door's cat keeps coming in and eating his food

Tawny

Tawny Report 13 Feb 2015 13:27

I have two male cats both snipped and chipped. The cat flap we have also reads the microchips. So not only do we have a way of getting them back if they go missing but we can keep unwanted friends out the house too.

Micro-Chipping humans would get rid of those old-fashioned & ridiculous badges seen dangling around the neck on a piece of string.

I agree with all the above. It makes sense to have them chipped, as does scanning road killed pets.
