Many indoor cats live the life of Riley, chasing string toys, climbing kitty condominiums, and wallowing in catnip. So why bother with vaccinations?
Cat microchipping is a relatively new technology that can help you find your cat if it ever gets lost or stolen. It’s a simple process that takes less than 30 seconds, and it’s well worth the peace of mind that comes with knowing your pet will be safe and sound.
And here are a few more reasons to consider microchipping:
- Indoor cats need to be microchipped because they’re at risk of becoming lost or stolen. Cats who live indoors are more likely to get lost than those who live outside, because many indoor cats don’t have collars or tags (which also makes them more likely to be stolen).
- Indoor cats need to be microchipped because it helps reunite them with their owners quickly. When an indoor cat gets lost, it’s easy for the owner to report the missing cat without having any identifying information about them. Basically, it’s a quick and easy way for shelters and other organizations to match up an owner with their missing pet!
- Microchips are also easy to use. They’re implanted under the cat’s skin and don’t require any special care or additional medical procedures.
