SNIP ‘N’ CHIP COMES TO CANTERBURY! 🎉

We are excited to be launching a new Snip ‘n’ Chip campaign for cat owners in the Hurunui District, Rangiora, Christchurch, Leeston, Methven, Ashburton, and other nearby areas.

From 6 August 2025 we are working with local participating veterinary clinics to offer this service to cat owners who are struggling with the cost of desexing and microchipping. Vouchers help those in need get their cat desexed and microchipped for $30.

Bookings are now OPEN! Click the link in the comments to check if vouchers are available in your area and register for your Snip ‘n’ Chip voucher ❤️ If you know someone who needs help with the online system, you can help by completing the registration with them.

Thank you so much to our participating vet clinics for helping us to make this important campaign possible.

PLEASE REMEMBER – a limited number of vouchers are available to help those who require financial assistance. Please, only get a voucher if you need one and intend to use it. In the past, we have noticed some vouchers were never used, or bookings were made with vet clinics and never attended. When this happens, it prevents someone else from using the voucher who might really need it.

For more information, check out our desexing website.
