Microchipping cats to become mandatory

[RustyBear]

The Queen's Speech has included an intention to make microchipping cats mandatory - not sure whether this is for all of the UK just England.

Background in this article from the Guardian last month:

More to the point - if all cats have to be microchipped, this gives a great excuse to euthanise those which aren't.

Shame on you.

@Grumpyoldpersonwithcats

Apologies, think I've misunderstood you there 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ignore me

What about dogs?

What about them?

...do you mean that as they're already supposed to be chipped, Mr Gates has them in his power? If so could he please upgrade mine to include volume control.

It's already the law to have your dog microchipped.
