cat. You dirty buggers! :innocent:
I had it done today.
Hey they offering it cheap wth the annual vaccination. Has anyone else had it done?
I saw it as a reasonable option given I would hate to lose her and not know.

Do you mean micro-chipping, Duck?
Have both of mine done. (Yes I have 2 pussies... :shifty:)
Is compulsory in some council areas in Melb.
Is all very well, providing the people who pick the cat up have a scanner & know how to use it. The micro-chips do move around under the skin.
I like to think that it gives the animal one more chance at being returned to their owner.

U can get radio trackers for your pussy, it beeps when the pointy end is pointing towards your pussy.

You mean if my cat was chipped I could find out who owns her? Actually I know who owns her,just not where they live now.

does that make the easier to hunt them in the dark :shifty:

Owners??? Yes... It is important that all owners wear Florescent Vests when out at night. This ensures even your most drunken mates will be able to 'score' you :buggerd:

Cant say I have ever tried that.
Yes CC I was referring to Microchipping.....she hasnt started glowing in the dark so I am guessing it was a safe decision

Have you tried a black light though Ms Duck? Sometimes that can reveal more than you were expecting damhik.

Did I misunderstand ?

If it costs nothing to have a pet chipped, at least it's not a waste of money but still largely pointless.
Chip readers aren't exactly commonplace -- particularly in the South Island. SPCAs don't routinely have them nor do all vets.
If your cat doesn't come home, generally two things have happened: it's either dead or it's found somewhere else to live. In both of those cases it is unlikely to come into contact with a chip reader.

But here on da peninsula we only have one vet so chances are if shes scrapped off the road they will know. Surely its better to know when to stop buying cat food?

I got mine from the SPCA, and they come pre-chipped. Just make sure if you shift you go online and update your address.

Some vets offer a free tattooing service at neutering. This has the advantage that anyone can see the tattoo in the ear- no special equipment required. The number is kept on record with a description of the cat. Some of the "old ways" are as handy as trendy new technologies. :)

Again, if anybody thinks to look. And it only works on cats with light coloured ears.

will chipping a cat stop it from pissing on my bike/gear, shitting in my garden, tearing up my rubbish bags, killing my kids pet rabbit, raiding the goldfish pond?
fucking cats piss me off esp. uncut toms :ar15:
dog owners are held responsible for the damage their roaming animals do, how about cat owners?

Ah well, there y'see is yer basic mistake. Cats don't have owners. They have staff.

Had all of my three female cats spade when they were 5 months thats when they go on heat and all have been micro chipped that cost me $100 each cat which is worth it thought it was best to be done because I had moved to a new place recently.Each cat has there annual vaccination never missed that.

Easy to read tattoo on inside of ear regardless of colour, actually. People bring lost/run over cats to the SPCA or a vet and they will always check.

yeah so they can hit the owner with a big bill when they fix up their run over cat.

I was happy to pay the $70 medical costs when we got our cat back after she was hit by a car. For what they did to her it was very good value compared to a vet.

You hold the cat with the head pointing away from you and turn slowly,the meows get louder and more frequent as you get closer to the direction of the owner.
This is known as a cat scan
