Just heard the law is changing to require owners to chip their cats ?

I wasn't aware until this morning.

Wonder what will happen for all those 'stray' cats that get fed by several people, will they all get fined ?

I honestly thought it already was a law. We've been chipping our cats since 2008 when we got our first. Why wouldn't you chip your cat?

And there I was, thinking that's a great idea, if your cat gets stolen from your car it can be traced back to you!

And then again, maybe that's not such a bad idea after all?

Same. Faster overall and can do the fence at the bottom no problem now. Well worth doing.
