Tips to Protect Pets<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Statistics show that one in four pets will be lost sometime during their lifetime.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of them are never recovered and their owners will be condemned to wonder for the rest of their lives what became of the pet that they loved so much. How can you assure that your cherished family member is reunited with you if it ever gets lost? The best solution is to make sure that it is wearing tags and is microchipped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ID Tags<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ID tags are widely available but they are of varying quality. The ones produced on the spot in vending machines are relatively inexpensive but the inscription tends to wear off quickly. A good ID tag should be of stainless steel or brass or a hard polymer plastic, because they do not rust. The hole by which the tag attaches to the S-hook or split ring should be reinforced by a grommet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a lost and found service, Pet FBI encourages people to use ID tags by selling very high quality ones at a very low price, just slightly above our cost. Our ID tags come in various materials, styles, sizes and colors and have several lines of text with room for lots of information. They have a reflective strip on the back and the largest stainless steel tags are available with double-sided inscriptions. They can be ordered on our ID tag page<\/a> and delivery is within a few days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
