July is Pet Tag Awareness Month at the Orange County Shelter in the city of Orange
Only 6% of the 29,000 animals impounded at OC Animal Care in 2012 had some form of identification, such as a pet license, microchip, or name tag. Also in 2012, 61% of animals with a form of ID were returned to their owners versus only 8% of animals without identification.
The OC Animal Shelter wants to help protect your pet!
A license, microchip, or tag could be your pet's ticket home! Please visit their booth near the shelter entrance every Saturday in July from 10 am to 12 pm to receive a free pet tag! This is a tag, not a microchip, but is certainly helpful in the successful return of lost pets.
