Straylight Savings Time- Spring forward & think forward for pets
While springing forward by resetting the clock for daylight savings time, observe straylight savings time, and think forward about important steps to get your pet back if they’re ever lost by updating their microchip and license contact information.
You know the drill for Daylight Savings Time- it’s time to remember the special button combinations to reset the clock in your car, on the oven, and to get a step stool to change the living room wall clock and check your smoke detectors. It’s also a great time to remember to update your pet’s license and microchip information.
Pets who are licensed and microchipped are much more likely to be reunited with their people if ever lost. But you have to take the time to make sure your contact information is up to date for these important forms of identification to be effective!
- Check your pet’s microchip registry information on petmicrochiplookup.org
- Register and update your pet’s microchip for free on FoundAnimals.org
- Update or renew your pet’s license information at multcopets.org/licensing
