Microchipped and registered. The fastest way back home.
Why a microchip is so important
Every year, over 10,000 cats are reported missing in Switzerland. Many of them never find their way home because they cannot be clearly identified as belonging to their owners. By microchipping and registering your cat, you can ensure that animal shelters, veterinarians, or authorities can quickly identify your furry friend and contact you.
In 2026, VetTrust will give you a CHF 25 discount on additional microchipping when you have your cat spayed or neutered.
A small chip with a big impact
The microchip is about the size of a grain of rice and is implanted under the cat's skin. The procedure is similar to a vaccination and takes only a few seconds. The chip contains a unique number that is linked to the owner's contact details in a database.
The benefits for you and your furry friend
- Quick identification in case of loss or emergency
- Unique identification by animal shelters and veterinary practices
- Lifetime identification without batteries or wear and tear
- Painless insertion in just a few seconds
- International readability of the chip
- Control of some cat flaps and automatic feeders
Convenient in everyday life
Your cat's microchip can do even more: modern cat flaps recognize the chip and only open for your furry friend. This keeps other cats out. Smart automatic feeders can also be controlled with the chip, which is particularly practical if you have several cats in your household that need different food.
Your benefits at VetTrust 2026
If you have your cat neutered at a VetTrust small animal practice this year, you will receive a 25 CHF discount on the additional microchipping.
The microchip promotion is valid throughout 2026 at all VetTrust locations. Make an appointment now!
