The service is available to all pet owners, including non-residents of Wakefield Regional Council.
They DO chip dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and ferrets.
They DON’T chip livestock, birds, or reptiles.
WRC mayor, Rodney Reid, said council teamed up with ChipBlitz for a third time after receiving such a huge response at previous microchipping events.
“In 2019, we microchipped over 200 pets in one day, and the year before was similar,” mayor Reid said.
“We love seeing so many pet owners taking up the opportunity to microchip at this great low price because it significantly increases the likelihood of a lost pet being returned to its owners than one that is not microchipped.”
