Every cat owner in England must obey the rule
Charity Cats Matter said from June 10, 2024, it will become illegal for cat owners to not microchip their pets and currently in England there are around three million unchipped cats.
"The process of microchipping involves the quick, simply and painless insertion of a chip, generally around the size of a grain of rice, under the skin. The microchip has a unique serial number that the keeper needs to register on a database. When a cat is found, the microchip can be read with a scanner and the registered keeper identified on a database so the pet can quickly be reunited with them.
"Microchipping ensures that people are notified should an accident happen, and we are fully aware how important it is for people to be notified of incidents concerning their cats, and how vital it is to have that closure should the worst happen. Even cats that are house cats or have catios and enclosed gardens can still escape through windows, doors, or of course carriers on the way to the vets.
"We urge all cat owners who have not yet microchipped their cat to make an appointment at their local vets or with their nearest registered implanter. It's vital people book through a trained and registered implanter to prevent injury or potential complications to their beloved cat." Cats Matter suggests people use this resource to find one - click her e.
