Microchips are soooooo important‼️
Yesterday I was called to scan a microchip on this gorgeous, super lucky guy. He was blessed when a very cat friendly couple traveling across Saddle Road saw him at one of the hunter check in spots.🙀
Thin, hungry, thirsty but overall in good condition, they brought him home to Waikoloa. ❤️
His microchip led me to his mom, who was absolutely over the moon that he’d been found. He’d been missing from Hilo for about 3 months. She’s pretty sure this is the result of a nasty neighbor who took him and dumped him up there. 😡
As soon as she got my call she was on the road to Waikoloa to get him. Mom said on the ride home he lounged on the seat, snuggled on her shoulder and then slept on her head all night, happy boy😻
Make sure your cats and dogs are microchipped AND make sure you register the chip. If you don’t know your animal’s chip number, your vet, rescues, animal control and humane society can scan them and give it to you.
Here are a few places you can register. If your pet ever goes missing, file a lost report with your microchip manufacturer as well as on petcolove.org.
