Remember, it’s a legal requirement to have your dog microchipped.
New rules coming in…all owners must have their cat microchipped by 10th June 2024.
We offer a reduced cost microchipping service at our Animal Centre in Martlesham. Please ring 0300 999 7321 to make an appointment. It costs £10 for one animal and £15 for two animals.
What is microchipping?
Microchipping involves the insertion of a small chip, around the size of a grain of rice, under the animal’s skin, usually between the shoulder blades. Each microchip has a unique serial number that is registered on a database. If an animal is found lost or injured, the microchip can be read with a scanner so the pet can quickly be reunited with the owner, so it is always essential that you keep the database up to date.
If your animal is chipped, please remember to update the details on the microchip database if you move address or change your contact details in any way.
