Lost and Found

The best way to be reunited with a lost pet is to get all your pets microchipped. The chip is the same size as a grain of rice and is inserted between the shoulder blades under the skin in the same way as a vaccination. It lasts a lifetime and only costs £12.85 + vat. You may be reunited with your pet the same day if it is chipped, if not there is a less than 50% chance of getting your pet back.
