Make it easier to find your pet if they get lost

An unfamiliar location miles away from home is the worst place to lose your pet. Before your trip, make sure they’re easy to find in case the worst happens.

Implanting a microchip under your dog or cat’s skin will make them trackable no matter where in the country they wander off to.

If you’re not willing to commit to that procedure, at least make sure the contact information on their tags is up-to-date—that way, they’re more likely to be returned to satefy if someone finds them.
