FREE Pet Microchip Event presented by Team Kitten

🌟Join Team Kitten and Royal Canin July 19th for a FREE community microchip event!
Team Kitten, with the support of Royal Canin, is proud to present a free microchip for 150 owned pets – both cats and dogs!
Microchipping is a quick, safe, and relatively painless procedure that provides lifelong protection. Once a chip is implanted it requires no maintenance or replacement. It does not act as a GPS or tracking device, but instead provides a unique ID number when a scanner passes over it – one that stays with your pet unlike a collar or tag that may fall off or get lost.
According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) :
–Lost dogs with microchips are
returned to their owners at a rate of 52.2%, compared with just 21.9% for those without.
– Cats are reunited with their owners at a rate of 38.5%, compared with only 1.8% for cats who are not microchipped.
These odds increase when the chips are registered. You’ll be able to easily register your chip for free online in a secure online registry. Registering the microchip includes typing in your pet’s chip number along with your information, which allows vets or shelters to contact you should your pet go missing.
❗️Participants are strongly encouraged to reserve a timeslot ahead of time using the booking link. Time slots and spots are limited.Assistance for registering microchips will be available.
