Microchipping pets is not new. Many thousands of dog and cat owners already chip their pets for protection. Chipping is like a vaccination for your pet. It only takes seconds to put a chip in the back of your pet's neck. The procedure is very safe and your pet will feel little pain.
Microchips are the same size as a grain of rice.
The chip is inserted in the back of your pet's neck. When the chip is scanned, a number will identify your cat or dog. The final fee levy has been set by the Companion Animal Regulation 1999. If residents and ratepayers require any further information please contact the Animal Control Section at the Shire Offices on 50273203. or go to the Department of Local Government's web site.
