GIVE YOUR PET THE MOST IMPORTANT GIFT THIS YEAR!
With the approaching Festive Season, Pet Owners are asked to consider microchipping their pets! One minute they’re there, the next they’re gone. It’s impossible to keep track of your pets every minute of the day and night.
A very small percentage of the stray animals being admitted to our Kloof and Highway SPCA are owner claimed. If a pet is microchipped we are able to contact the owners and reunite them with their pet. There have been animals that when scanned there is a chip but it says not registered.
Please also ensure your details are registered and kept updated. Our SPCA uses the BackHome Microchip manufactured by Virbac and all animals adopted from us are microchipped with their new owners details.
Microchipping your pets with BackHome offers pet owners the following:
- Permanent identification
- Proof of ownership
- Missing pet alerts
- Store any brand of microchip on our database
- Update your address to a temporary holiday address whilst on holiday
- Before going on holiday check your chip at your local vet
- Free support 24/7 so you can keep your details updated
