Make Sure Your Information is Up to Date
If your pet is microchipped, be sure it is registered and your contact information is up to date! That way if someone finds your pet, they will be able to reach you.
Not sure if your pet’s chip is registered? Check here online to find the company that made the microchip. After looking up this info, you will need to contact the company that made the chip directly online or via phone to update your account information.
