Other cities are trying to get it passed: Waco, TX and Crossett, AK. In the US, we have a terrible animal overpopulation problem especially with cats. Only 2% of lost cats make it home to their owners while over 25% of dogs do. We MUST do more to help protect our pets, especially the cats.<BR/><BR/>I hope that India soon begins to see a reduction of the number of its homeless animals soon.ChihuahuaChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01112940323257025308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7627829345459948162.post-91653516072232227482008-04-30T17:25:00.000+05:302008-04-30T17:25:00.000+05:30I am very happy that microchipping has been introd...I am very happy that microchipping has been introduced in our state.<BR/>More people need to be made aware of this so that they can get their pets microchippedBloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01647733478406151047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7627829345459948162.post-81934840266443552782008-02-02T03:18:00.000+05:302008-02-02T03:18:00.000+05:30It is nice to hear the Pet World understands the n...It is nice to hear the Pet World understands the need of microchipping pets. When a pet goes missing or even lost it is so important that we proactively react to the situation. Taking steps to protect your pet prior to having this scary and overwhelming incident happen. These steps include always keeping a collar on your pet with I.D Tags. Having your pet micro-chipped and registering them properly. Never leaving them outside unattended, this could lead to their escape as well as giving the opportunity for someone to steal your pet. <BR/><BR/>Making sure that you’re pet (s) are registered properly is vital to helping them return home. There are many companies that you can register your pet with. One of these companies is called www.helpmefindmypet.com they provide not only a registry but they also have created a proactive lost pet alert that is sent out in up to a fifty mile radius to all Shelters, Rescues, Veterinarians, Municipalities, Groomers, Kennels, Pet Industry, and Members. People find lost pets; if your community is aware that you’re pet is missing this will create a local involvement resulting in more pets being reunited with their families. Prevention and preparation is essential to keeping your family together.Helping-petshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14339156278014022836noreply@blogger.com
