Microchipping

a

We microchip the pets of Cardiff, Penarth and Pontypridd to give you the best possible chance of seeing them again if they are lost or stolen.

Microchipping is a legal requirement for all dogs over the age of eight weeks and from 10th June 2024 for all  cats over the age of twenty weeks. We also provide microchipping for other small animals.

Microchipping is a permanent, safe and affordable way of ensuring your pet is reunited should it go missing, escapes or even stolen.

Each chip contains a unique number that is linked to the owners contact details on a nationally integrated registry.

When a lost animal is found, it is checked to see if a microchip is present, and if so the contact details can be accessed and the pet reunited.

Microchipping can be done at any time, although most people have it done during a routine vaccination, or while their pet is with us for another procedure.
