Low-Cost Microchipping Coming to Port Wentworth
(Savannah, GA) - September 06, 2007
The demand has been high for low-cost microchipping in West Chatham, and thanks to a local restaurant owner, the demand can be met.
On Saturday, September 22, Coastal Pet Rescue will hold a low-cost microchip clinic at the Island Grill from 11 to 2 pm.
“We hope that this location will help those in Pooler, Port Wentworth, Rincon and Springfield that have been calling and emailing us for microchipping,” says president and founder Lisa Scabrough. “The more we can make our services available, the fewer pets will be euthanized at county shelters due to lack of identification.”
Pets should be leashed or in carriers and have current proof of rabies vaccination.
For just $10, pets will be microchipped with a 24PetWatch microchip. There is no cost for updating information after registration, and 24PetWatch provides online tools to help reunite your pets when they get lost. Additionally, the chips can be read by any scanner at shelters, rescues and animal control facilities.
Additionally, Coastal Pet Rescue will be showcasing several of their many pets available for adoption. Pets may be viewed prior to the event through their website, http://www.coastalpetrescue.org.
Founded in February 2003, Coastal Pet Rescue is an all-volunteer 501(c) (3) non-profit organization dedicated to saving the lives of homeless, abused and neglected animals in the coastal areas of Georgia, South Carolina and Florida.
