My rescue always take our cats to Petco to be microchipped at $40 each and it adds up so we really like to do it cheaper. So we found out that Home Again is offering Petfinder members microchips for only $5 per chip and $10 for lifetime registration. This would be great for us but I read somewhere that only veterinarians are allowed to insert microchips. I find that a bit hard to believe though since I know that pounds have the animal control officers do it and a shelter I volunteered at had the kennel workers do it. So I'm wondering if anyone knows what the law says on this. Can we buy the microchips and insert them ourselves? I asked my vet but he didn't know so I thought I'd try here.
