Where can I get a pet microchip?

If you are not in Los Angeles:

Many municipal animal care facilities host microchipping clinics; call the facility that services your area to see if this is offered. Don’t know who services your area? Try searching for "municipal animal care [and the name of your city]" on the internet to find the organization that services your area.

Also, local pet suppliers often hold monthly microchip clinics; contact your local supplier for more information. Most if not all veterinarians perform this simple procedure; call your local vet and make an appointment.

Before going to any microchip clinic we recommend:

• Call before to confirm 1) day/time/location of clinic 2) types of animals accepted 3) type of payment accepted 4) that this agency services your area. If it is a municipal facility, microchipping services may only be available to pet owners residing in their service area.


• All dogs should be on leash and cats in carriers.
