Why is it Good to Microchip your cat?
- By law all cats older than 20 weeks of age need to be microchipped
- Your cat might get lost or stolen – vets or animal welfare organisations can scan lost cats for microchips.
- Unlike collars and ID tags, microchips don’t come off and they don’t put your cat at risk of injury.
- The procedure to microchip your cat is quick and is no more painful than an injection.
- You can even get microchip matched cat flaps

If your cat is already microchipped, check with your chip provider that your details are up to date.
