Microchipping Booking

It is now a legal requirement for all cats over the age of 20 weeks to be microchipped, and for the details to be kept up-to-date.

All cat owners have until 10th June 2024 to ensure your cat is chipped or you could face a fine of up to £500. This legislation is very much welcomed as we hope it will make it easier to reunite lost cats with their families.
