Betty White Wants You to Microchip Your Pets

I know, Betty White is usually funny. But lost pets are no joke. Here is some information for concerned pet owners from HomeAgain:

• 6 to 8 million pets enter U.S. shelters each year. Many are lost family pets.
• 1 in 3 family pets will get lost.
• Without ID, 90 percent of lost pets will not return home.
• Today, only 3 to 4 percent of dogs, and less than 1 percent of cats, arriving at U.S. shelters are microchipped.
• A microchip is the only form of pet identification that is permanent, with a unique number that cannot fall off, be altered or be removed.
