  Allan B. asked:

  Can I recommend this service www.dogtrac.com (no connection to me). It's a small tag with a unique QR code. If your dog gets found any smartphone can be used to scan the QR code giving owner, medical & vet details. On being scanned you receive a text giving the approx location of where the dog was found

  

  Peter T. replied:

  Hmmmmm, not sure about DogTrac, few too many variables. If you lose the dog from home with no collar, or the dog loses the collar on a walk - no tag to scan. If the dog has a collar on, by law it must have your contact details so you don't need DogTrac tag. If no collar, then by law the dog must be chipped with your contact details and most finders would know to take the dog to the police or vets to have the chip scanned. So only plus side seems to be the Dog Trac community within a five mile radius which for us in the middle of nowhere would be none. On the other hand Petlog seems useful - https://www.petlog.org.uk/

  Hi fellow greyhound owners I'm going down to Watcher, near Minehead, Somerset with my Ben and Amy and wondering if anyone knows of a vets locally. A long shot I know but we are such a wide community I'm hoping someone may be able too help. Having an elderly boy in Ben I would like to have a backup just in case.

  ADVICE IF YOU HAVE FOUND A CAT If the cat will let you approach him, make up a paper collar with a note on saying: "If this is your cat please call this number...", so that you can ascertain whether the cat is definitely stray. Place it round the cat's neck and secure the two ends with a small piece of sellotape (don't put sellotape right round the whole thing as that can be dangerous if the cat gets caught up anywhere). If no-one calls in 24 hours you can be fairly sure it is most likely lost or stray, then proceed as follows... A simple Cat Shelter ADVICE IF YOU HAVE FOUND A CAT if the cat is hungry, please feed it, and provide clean water, (not cows milk, as many cats and kittens are lactose intolerant) If you cannot take it into your home, please make sure there is somewhere dry and waterproof outside for shelter. This can be as simple as a cardboard box covered with a bin liner or clingfilm, and weighted down against the wind, or tucked under a bush for stability. Ideal bedding to put inside is a thick layer of straw, which acts as a heat-conserving 'nest'. Alternatively, a jumper or towel will do, but this should be changed regularly as these retain moisture and can encourage mold or mildew. contact your local animal rescue groups, in case they have been reported as lost - contact details for rescues across the UK appear on our: Shelters Pages give the cat's description to local vets in case the owner contacts them, and if possible, take the cat to a vet who will check for a microchip - for details of vets in your area go to: www.any-uk-vet.co.uk phone Petlog on 0844 4633 999 Or visit: www.petlog.org.uk so that they can check their 'lost cat' records for your area. phone the RSPCA helpline to register the cat's details, as they match up lost & found cats across the UK: 0300 1234 999 Check the “Lost a Pet” galleries (searchable by area) to see if the cat has been reported lost, here: www.animalsearchuk.co.uk check the lost & found notices in your local paper post details on our forum under 'Lost & Found' »» the Cat Chat Forum make up a small notice saying 'Cat Found' with a description, which can be displayed in local newsagents, shops etc. It is a good idea not to give a full description of the cat, so that if someone contacts you saying the cat belongs to them, you can check those extra details with them to know if they are the genuine owners, and not just someone after a ‘free cat’ (Template ‘Found Cat’ posters can be obtained from the Cats Protection helpline: 03000 12 12 12) if the owner cannot be traced, and you are not able to adopt the cat yourself, contact your local rescue centre as above, so that they can arrange to take the cat in for rehoming. If you intend to keep the cat, take him to a vet for a health check, and to arrange for him to be neutered and microchipped

  Kate M. asked:

  Hi I had a lovely cat from you last year, and we have moved to a new address so I need to update her microchip. Please can you tell me the name of the company you used to micro chip so I can contact them. Thank you!

  

  Rachel C. replied:

  Hi Kate, I work at the vets that Basingstoke CPL uses. Chances are it's registered with Anibase or PetLog. If you know the chip number you can check it on their websites. If you don't still have the chip number to hand any vets will scan your cat to get you the chip number x https://www.anibase.com https://www.petlog.org.uk

  Rp for... Tracey Smith Hi, i was given a horse on the 6 Jan with no passport, i had the vet out today to check the horse over and do a new passport and microchip, i found out the horse has already been microchip. so who do i ring to find out if this horse is stolen or just has no passport. thanks

  

  Rebecca H. replied:

  Oh and PetID are a microchip supplier not a database where the chips are registered so they will most likely direct you to call Petlog as that's the company that register PetID chips. Petlogs number us 0844 4633999 :)
