Our mission is to support and work with the San José Animal Care & Services to reduce the number of homeless animals and to increase the awareness of the value of companion pets in the home and community. This can be accomplished through, but not limited to, promotion of educational, medical, and behavioral assistance programs.

low cost microchips - 24 petwatch

PAWS helps microchip dogs and cats. Microchipping is a safe, non-invasive insertion with no recovery time. Microchips contain your contact infomation and help shelters track you down if you are ever separated from your beloved pets.

We purchase our chips from 24 Pet Watch. They also provide pet medical insurance specifically for shelter animals called ShelterCare.

To get an animal microchipped, please email us.

  myths about microchipping
 

HomeAgain has put together information to combat the prevalent myths about microchipping, including, but not limited to:

The myth: the procedure to implant the microchip is too expensive.
The myth: enrolling in the database or service is not necessary.
The myth: implanting the microchip will hurt my pet.
The myth: most shelters and veterinarians don't have microchip scanners, so they won't be able to read the microchip and identify my pet.
The myth: every pet with a microchip couldn't possibly be given a unique number. My pet's number will be duplicated.
The myth: eventually, the microchip will wear out and I'll need to have it replaced.
The myth: my cat never goes outside. He doesn't need to have a microchip ID.
The myth: it's not safe for my dog to have a foreign object inside his body.
