🐾 A reminder about microchips — and a happy reunion story! 🐾
We’ve recently seen a rise in stray dogs and cats coming through our doors with either no microchip or outdated details. Not only does this make it much harder for us to reunite lost pets with their families, but it’s also a legal requirement for dogs and cats to be microchipped.
Please take a moment to check your pet’s microchip information — it really can make all the difference. 🐶🐱
We do, however, have a lovely success story to share!
Jynx was brought into our surgery after being found straying in Shrewley. Thanks to her microchip details being fully up to date, we were able to contact her owners straight away. She had been missing from Sutton Coldfield for a whole month — quite a distance from where she was found — and her family had feared the worst.
They were overjoyed to get our call, and Jynx was reunited with her family the very next day.
Here she is with nurse Sarah — her owners were a little camera shy! 🐾💚
