Silicon Implants Could Save A Life

Looking for loveWhile looking for the owner of this sweet little stray, I have spent a lot of time on Craigslist’s Lost & Found pages. So sad to see how many pets are lost, and how heartbroken the families are. Many of the ads mention collars but no tags, much like this guy who had a collar on with no info whatsoever.

Please, people, at the very least get ID tags for your pets. Even better, get them microchipped, as well. Any vet will scan for a chip if you ask them (if you’ve found a stray for instance) and all animal welfare organizations, like the Arizona Humane Society, will scan any strays they take in.

The best price I found for chipping locally is at AZ Spay & Neuter Clinic, well worth $30 to make sure you get your friend back.
