Have you had any experiences with microchipped pets? Did they help find them?

I’ve heard about microchipped pets but never seen one in action. Do they really work? Looking for some real-life stories and experiences.

Microchips help reunite pets with their owners all the time. They are cheap and easy to get for your pet. We even had our ferret chipped.

I once had a cat brought in who was really old and very sick. She was microchipped, and we managed to find her owners after some research. She had been missing for 8 years. Sadly, they couldn’t take her back, and she was too sick to recover. I gave her palliative care, and her owners were there when we had to put her down. I still have a painting of her on my wall. I only knew her for a few weeks, but I miss her a lot.
