La puce électronique comme moyen d’identification pour les chats

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 7 months

For years, the identification of animals such as cats and dogs has become mandatory. Indeed, a simple collar is no longer sufficient these days; there are now more revolutionary methods to allow our cats to keep their identities: electronic chips. Mandatory Identification Method The electronic chip is a means of identification that has become mandatory for cats along with tattoo identification since a law passed in 2012. It has become an indispensable procedure for cats over 7 months old. Although it is mandatory, it is still important to note that among the millions of domestic cats in France, only a small fraction have identification. Why identify your cat? Implantation of an electronic chip on a cat The need for identification of a cat must be done. Firstly, you should know that if your cat can roam anywhere in the streets of your city and if it is not identified, it can be captured at any time by the pound. Indeed, without tattoo identification or an electronic chip, it will be considered a stray cat and may be euthanized. Secondly, if your cat ever gets lost, it can be found more easily if it has a chip; the same applies if it has an accident without being under your supervision. If your pet gets lost, those who find it will be able to contact you more easily. The advantages of an electronic chip The advantages of an electronic chip on a cat can be numerous. Firstly, the implantation. It is easy and does not require anesthesia and therefore poses no risk to the cat. It contains no system or component that could be harmful to the cat. Remote reading can make things easier when dealing with a nervous cat. Next, it is a reliable and unforgeable method of identification, but it is also permanent and will last for years.

Depuis des années, l’identification des animaux comme les chats et les chiens est devenue obligatoire. En effet, un simple collier n’est plus suffisant de nous jours, il existe maintenant des moyens plus révolutionnaires pour permettre à nos chats de garder leurs identités : les puces électroniques. Moyen d’identifications obligatoires La puce électronique est un moyen d’identification devenu obligatoire pour les chats avec le tatouage depuis une loi sortie de 2012. C’est devenu un procédé indispensable pour les chats ayant plus de 7 mois. Même si c’est obligatoire, il est cependant important de noter que sur les millions de chats domestiques en France, seule une infime partie dispose d’identification. Pourquoi identifier son chat ? Implantation d’une puce électronique sur un chat Le besoin d’ identification d’un chat doit être fait. En premier lieu, vous devez savoir que si votre chat peut se promener partout dans les rues de votre ville et que s’il n’est pas identifié, il peut être capturé à tout moment par la fourrière. En effet, sans tatouage ni puce électronique, il sera considéré comme un chat errant et risque d’être euthanasié. En second lieu, si jamais votre chat se perd un jour, il pourra être retrouvé plus facilement s’il a une puce, il en sera de même si jamais il lui arrive un accident sans qu’il ne soit sous votre surveillance. Si votre animal se perd, ceux qui le retrouveront pourront plus facilement vous contacter. Les avantages d’une puce électroniques Les avantages d’une puce électronique sur un chat peuvent être nombreux. En premier lieu, il y a la pose. Elle est facile et ne nécessite pas d’anesthésie et reste donc sans risque pour le chat. Il ne contient aucun système ou composant qui puisse être nuisible au chat. La lecture à distance peut faciliter les choses quand il s’agit d’un chat nerveux. Ensuite, c’est un moyen d’identification fiable et infalsifiable, mais est aussi permanent et donc durera des années.
