Since April 2006, it has been a legal requirement for all dogs to be microchipped in England. This has now been extended to cats, officially since June 2024. Regardless of your cat's age, it is now legally required for them to be microchipped.
We strongly advise all pets be microchipped, even those that are kept indoors. If your pet gets lost or sadly taken without a microchip, it is very unlikely they will be found and returned to you safely.
The microchips are about the size of a long grain of rice and are inserted under the skin at the back of your pets scruff. Each microchip has a unique 15 digit number which once registered is kept on a secure national database. If your pet is found and scanned this number can be traced to you and so your beloved pet can be returned.

Vaccinations
Vaccines have long been an important part of preventative medicine, both in humans and in pets. By giving a pet a controlled amount of vaccine, the pet’s immune system can prepare itself and be ready for the day if and when the real disease arrives to infect them.
