Microchip technology revolutionized pet identification, making it easier for pets to be reunited with their owners.
The system has been in operation since 2007 and has helped thousands of pets find their way back to their owners.
The Rise of Microchip Technology
In the early 2000s, microchip technology began to gain popularity as a means of pet identification. The first microchip was implanted in a cat in 1988, but it wasn’t until the early 2000s that the technology became widely available for pets. The microchip is a small, implantable device that contains a unique identification number, which can be read by a special scanner. The microchip is inserted under the skin, usually between the shoulder blades, and is about the size of a grain of rice. The microchip is made of a biocompatible material that is safe for pets to have implanted. The microchip is not a GPS device, but rather a passive identification device that relies on the scanner to read the microchip.
The Save This Life System
Save This Life was one of the first companies to offer a microchip and pet recovery system. The system was launched in 2007 and quickly gained popularity among pet owners. The system worked by scanning the microchip with a special scanner, which would then display the owner’s contact information.
Re-registering the microchip with a new company can help ensure that your pet is found if they ever get lost.
Understanding Microchipping
What is Microchipping? Microchipping is a permanent form of identification that involves implanting a small microchip under the pet’s skin. The microchip contains a unique identification number that can be read by a special scanner.
