Helping Lost Pets Find Their Way Home
Pet Microchipping in Gilbertsville, PA
A lost pet can be any pet parent’s worst nightmare. At Patt Veterinary Hospital, we offer safe, permanent pet microchipping to help ensure your beloved companion finds their way back home if they ever go missing. It’s a quick, simple procedure that provides peace of mind for a lifetime.
Quick, Painless, and Lifelong Security
What Is a Pet Microchip?
A microchip is a tiny device — about the size of a grain of rice — implanted just under your pet’s skin, usually between the shoulder blades. It contains a unique ID number linked to your contact information in a secure national database.
If your lost pet is found and scanned at a veterinary clinic, shelter, or rescue organization, their microchip can be used to contact you and reunite you quickly.
Microchipping is:
- Permanent – Unlike collars or tags, it can’t fall off or be removed
- Safe – The chip is biocompatible and requires no battery or power source
- Quick – The procedure takes just seconds and can be done during a regular visit or at the time of spay/neuter
Peace of Mind in One Simple Step
Peace of Mind When It Matters Most
Why Microchipping Matters
Every year, millions of pets are lost, and many never make it back home. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, dogs with microchips are over two times more likely to be returned to their owners. For cats, that number jumps to over 20 times.
Even indoor-only pets can slip out unexpectedly. Microchipping is one of the most effective ways to protect your pet if the unexpected happens.
A Simple Step for Lifelong Safety
What Happens During the Microchipping Process
At Patt Veterinary Hospital, we make microchipping fast and stress-free:
The microchip is implanted under your pet’s skin using a sterile syringe — no anesthesia required
We register the chip with your contact information in the national pet recovery database
You’ll receive instructions to keep your info up to date (especially after a move or phone number change)
We often combine microchipping with other services, such as wellness exams, vaccinations, or surgery, to minimize stress.
