Chipping away!

Chipping away!

 

Did you know it is now law in the UK for any dog over the age of eight weeks of age to be microchipped? Whilst microchipping your cat isn’t compulsory at the moment, in England, it will be mandatory for pet cats to be chipped from 10 June 2024. If your cat is not yet chipped, don’t despair, the chip itself is no bigger than a grain of rice and takes just a few seconds to implant in a routine consultation.  Our Winter newsletter discusses the importance of chipping your pet and the things to remember, if you need to arrange microchipping for your pet please do not hesitate to contact our friendly team today.
