Pet Permanent Identification in Urbana, IL
At Beaumont Animal Clinic, we recognize the critical importance of keeping your pet safe and secure. One of the most effective ways to ensure your pet can be returned to you if they ever become lost is through permanent identification. Our pet permanent identification services in Urbana, IL, focus on providing a reliable method to safeguard your furry friend.
Why Permanent Identification is Essential
According to PetFinder, over 10 million pets go missing each year, and statistics reveal that one in three pets will be lost at some point in their lives. Alarmingly, pets without permanent identification are often surrendered to animal shelters, and many are not reunited with their families. The chances of finding a lost pet without identification are significantly reduced, with only 15% of lost dogs and 2% of lost cats being returned to their owners.
The Benefits of Microchipping
To address this issue, Beaumont Animal Clinic strongly recommends pet microchipping as a reliable and permanent method of pet identification. Microchipping involves implanting a tiny chip under your pet’s skin, which provides a permanent and unique identification method.
- Microchip Implantation: The microchip is inserted between your pet’s shoulder blades using a syringe. This procedure is quick and causes minimal discomfort.
- Lifetime Use: Once implanted, the microchip remains in place throughout your pet’s life and requires no maintenance.
- Unique Identification: Each microchip contains a unique code linked to a database with your contact information. This code can be scanned by veterinary offices, animal shelters, and other animal organizations to quickly identify and contact you.

When to Microchip Your Pet
Microchipping can be performed during various routine procedures:
- Spaying or Neutering: Many pet owners choose to microchip their pets when they are spayed or neutered.
- Wellness Examinations: Microchipping can also be done during a regular wellness exam.
Keeping Your Contact Information Updated
To ensure the effectiveness of the microchip, always keep your contact information current. If you move or change your phone number, update the information linked to the microchip so that you can be reached in case your pet is found.
