Free Microchipping at our Tuesday Coffee & Bric-a-brac Mornings

Submitted by GSPCA on 11:11, 3rd Dec, 2012 | 0

The GSPCA have been running coffee mornings and bric-a-brac sales at the Animal Shelter for nearly a month and as a Christmas present to pets each Tuesday between 10.30am and 12pm we are offering free microchipping to dogs and cats.

No appointment needed all the GSPCA ask for is a donation and we will ensure your dog or cat is microchipped.

Microchipping is a permanent form of identification and enables the GSPCA to reunite hundreds of animals every year but unfortunately more than 50% of strays the GSPCA has in at the Shelter have no microchip and often no collar.
