Owners could be fined hundreds of pounds for not complying
A new law which will impact all cat owners comes info effect from next year - and our pets will be safer thanks to it.
All owners must have their cat microchipped by 10 June 2024 and owners found not to have microchipped their cat will have 21 days to have one implanted, or could be hit with the fine. The new law will make it easier for lost or stray pet cats to be reunited with their owners and returned home safely.The process of microchipping involves the insertion of a chip, generally around the size of a grain of rice, under the skin of a pet.
There are over 9 million pet cats in England, with as many as 2.3 million unchipped, meaning that it would be very difficult to reunite them with their owner if they get lost or stolen. The new microchipping rules follow a Government call for evidence and consultation on the issue in which 99% of respondents expressed support for the measure.
