One of the biggest misconceptions about pet microchips is that they require surgery or anesthesia. They don’t! 🐾
Microchips are actually placed just like a routine vaccine or shot. The process only takes a few seconds, and most pets barely react at all.
✨ No surgery
✨ No anesthesia
✨ No recovery time
The microchip is about the size of a grain of rice and is placed under the skin between the shoulder blades using a special syringe. Once it’s in place, your pet can go right back to playing, walking, or demanding treats like normal
That tiny chip can make a huge difference if your pet ever gets lost by helping shelters and vets identify them and contact you quickly.
We currently have over 100 FREE microchips available at MACC! Stop in Tuesday through Friday from 9AM–5PM.
