Identification and traceability are important parts of responsible pet ownership. A microchip provides permanent identification for your pet and gives them the best chance of being reunited with you, should they happen to go missing.
Virtually any pet can be fitted with an identity microchip, including dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, snakes, parrots, fish, and even tortoises! Every year, thousands of pets are reunited with their owners because they have been microchipped.
A microchip is about the size of a grain of rice and is implanted just under the skin of dogs and cats. The chip is implanted by an injection between the shoulder blades. The microchip is pre-programmed with an identification number that is read by a microchip scanner. This identification number is registered on a database.
All animals adopted from the SPCA are microchipped. However, if your pet is not yet microchipped then we recommend that you make an appointment to have your pet microchipped as soon as possible.
