Christmas Hamper Winner

Christmas Hamper Winner

On Christmas Eve a winner for our Christmas hamper was drawn. Denise Woolmore, who has been bringing her pets to our clinic for many years now, had her name drawn from all those who had spent $50 or more in-clinic during the month of December. She is the recipient of a lovely collection of goodies from Smith and Caughey's.

Why Microchip Your Pet?

Why should I get my pet microchipped?

If you get a dog then registration laws require you to get your dog microchipped. If your dog was registered before these laws came into effect then legally you do not have to microchip your dog, but it is still a good idea to do so. Microchip numbers and owner details are kept by Auckland Council and enable a North Shore dog lost in Auckland to be linked with its owner.

Cats, rabbits and other pets should also be microchipped for identification. The main reason is if your pet is lost or injured, then any vet, SPCA or animal control agency can scan them and contact you. Even if your pet has not survived, at least you will know what happened to them.

Cats will also need microchipping if you want a cat door which will open only for your pet- see other article for details.

Contact details for these pets are kept on the NZ Companion Animal Register (NZCAR). It is also a good idea to register your dog with NZCAR, which enables tracing of animals nationally within New Zealand.

Cat Boarding for the North Shore

Did you know we have a boarding cattery?We cater for up to five cats in individual quarters, with two cages big enough to board two cats if your cats prefer to snuggle up together. We do not house cats from different households together. Go to http://www.nhv.co.nz/MoreAboutUs/tabid/177/Default.aspx for more information.

Microchip Sensitive Cat Doors on the North Shore

A Cat Door that Lets in Only Your Cats!

Did you know you can get cat doors that read a pet's microchip?

Andrea is delighted with the installation of her cat door, which lets only her cats in and out of her house.

Andrea's cats have been microchipped for some time, so that they could be registered with the NZ Companion Animal Registry in case they got lost or hurt. She didn't use a cat door, as she knows so often this lets neighbourhood cats in. (Her cats hate wearing collars, and are very good at losing them, so this rules out the use of the magnet-sensitive cat doors. Besides, any cat wearing a magnetic collar can use your cat door.)

After a recent burglary Andrea decided she was no longer happy leaving a high window open for the cats. It was time for a cat door!

Andrea googled 'microchip cat door' and got a cat door put in the same afternoon. She is very happy with the result, and wonders why she didn't get it done earlier!
