Pet Microchipping

At Victoria Point Vet Hospital it’s always sad to hear of families who have lost beloved fur babies. That’s why we want to ensure ALL pets are microchipped. We also recommend you have an ID tag attached to your pet’s collar, as this can speed up the lost and found process.

Microchipping is a very safe procedure involving the insertion of a mini-chip, smaller than the size of a grain of rice, into the back of their neck. With a special scanner, a vet can identify a pet that has been brought into the clinic, and it can be rapidly reunited with its owner.

Making sure microchip details are up to date

Microchip details are no good if the phone number is disconnected or you’ve moved house! So each time you change your contact details, make sure you update them on the microchip register.

If you know your pet’s microchip number, click here to find out which register their details are on, or visit us today so we can scan your pet’s microchip and point you in the right direction.

If your pet is lost, they can’t phone home. However, if your pet is microchipped (and the details are up to date) then someone else might be able to phone home for them!

If you’ve found a lost pet, or need to have your pet microchipped, call Victoria Point Vet Hospital to make an appointment today: (07) 3207 8023
