Cat Microchipping in Wheaton, IL
Countless cats go missing every year, leaving pet owners anxious and heartbroken. Even indoor cats face the risk of escaping through an open door or window. A microchip provides a reliable method for reuniting lost cats with their families. At College Station Cat Clinic in Wheaton, IL, we offer low-cost feline microchipping to help protect your beloved pet.
How Cat Microchipping Works
A microchip is a tiny device, roughly the size of a grain of rice, that is implanted just under your cat’s skin. At our clinic, we use PetLink™ microchips, which are recognized by most microchip scanners nationwide. Each chip has a unique identification number linked to your contact information in a secure database. If your cat is found, a quick scan reveals the ID number, ensuring you can be contacted promptly.
Benefits of Cat Microchipping
- Permanent Identification: Unlike collars or tags, microchips cannot be lost or removed.
- Wide Compatibility: PetLink™ microchips are universally recognized by veterinarians, shelters, and animal control agencies.
- Peace of Mind: Knowing your cat can be identified increases the chances of a happy reunion if they are ever lost.
When Should You Microchip Your Cat?
We recommend microchipping during a routine procedure like a spay or neuter, as this minimizes any discomfort. However, our team can also implant the microchip during a standard exam. Cats are gently restrained, and we use treats and affection to keep the process as stress-free as possible.
