📡 What Is a Pet Microchip?

A microchip is a tiny implant (about the size of a grain of rice) placed under your pet’s skin. It contains a unique ID number linked to your contact information in a secure database. If your pet is lost, any vet or shelter can scan the chip and get them back to you fast.

🚨 Why Microchipping Is So Important

• Over 10 million pets are lost or stolen each year
• Microchipped pets are 2.5x more likely to be reunited
• It’s a one-time, permanent ID solution
• No batteries, no GPS — just reliable backup ID

Even if your pet wears a collar, microchipping is your backup when everything else fails.

💉 Is It Safe?

Yes. Microchipping is quick, painless, and safe. It’s done with a syringe, just like a vaccine. No anesthesia needed. Most pets don’t even flinch.

At VetPlayas, we use ISO-compliant chips — which are readable worldwide and accepted by all major registries.

🌎 Traveling? Microchipping Is Often Required

If you're crossing borders or flying with your pet, many airlines and countries — including the U.S. and EU — require a registered microchip for entry. Don’t risk delays or denied entry.

💸 How Much Does Microchipping Cost at VetPlayas?

• Microchipping: from $25 USD
• Lifetime registration included
• Quick in-and-out appointment

Peace of mind? Priceless. But at VetPlayas, it’s also affordable.
