Microchip

[ILG]

I had my kitten microchipped yesterday. I have some mixed feelings about it. How about any of you? Had any pets microchipped? Would you do it?

i aint sending kitty to hell!

We have had our dog microchipped. I also had mixed feelings.

Those of you who wrote "No and I never will" please expound upon your position. Is it just that you don't want to propel what is probably going to happen with people in the future or do you think it is just plain wrong to microchip period?

I would definitely do it........if it was free and I had a dog worth $. I wouldn't do it for a mutt. Our cat never goes outside.

My mixed feelings are based on my belief that microchipping may have something to do with the mark of the beast in the future. I don't think having my cat microchipped *is* the makr of the beast....just that it is a bit outside my comfort zone to be any part of 'that system'.

I don't think any harm would come to my pet for doing so. I certainly don't believe that "chipping" my pet will cause them to miss out on an eternity they had waiting in heaven. :)

I am simply opposed to this society that finds it more and more acceptable to be tracked every moment of every day and I would never do the chip thing just because of my opposition to this monitored society we live in

That is why I have mixed feelings. I said yes and then wondered if I should retract etc. The reason I did it is because of a cat we lost before. Anyway, I thought I would try it and see how I feel about it in time.

On one forum I get on for people with special needs, the parents were discussing putting a microchip in their children who could not speak for themselves. It would have their name and address and parents name etc. They were all for the idea. Gave me goosebumps.

Yes ma'am... I understand that...

But I wouldn't sweat over it too much.

(Hoping your not offended by the next phrase) It's just a cat. :)

LOL! I'm not sweating over it. Yes, it is just a cat. Now, I do shudder about putting one into special needs kids.

gasp. I agree with d4t on sumpen

Sometimes this society really annoys me. They want to regulate and micromanage everything. I would like to hear some folks expound on their experiences or ideas concerning this on anything thought of, not just microchips.

[Hoovie]

There is no choice for me. I have no pet, but if I did I would have no qualms in putting an implant in him - even if I knew this was "the real Mark of the Beast". Who cares?

Well, obviously it is just a cat. But some don't want to help the system along any.

I have heard the chip called "LoJack for Cats" .
This is not exactly true. Our Dog was Microchipped, and I gave her to my sister when I moved. The dumb dog ran off and cost my sister $300. Of course, I was told this with the inference I should pay since it had been my dog. **cough**

To Bail "HoneyBee" out of the Dog Pound.

It is a "non profit" agency.

Seems I never changed the chip info and the former owners did not have the same phone number on the chip.

My sister said she was changing that!

Before we got this kitten, we tried to get a kitten from the humane society. They asked so many questions I felt interrogated and wanted a hefty fee. We left there and got a healthier looking one from a home.

"Honeybee" was from a Rescue Shelter. I got all the shots, and even hit up Petco and PetSmart for free food. Trouble was the dog was brilliant enough to stay inside with A/C on hot days and developed a lazy streak.

I got one for my dogs, and was thinking that one would be nice to have for me too. Especially if I didn't have to carry all them cards in my wallet...
