A pet running away is a traumatic experience for the owner. Fortunately, a few simple actions significantly reduce the risks.
Identification
Microchip your pet and register them in the national database. A chip is mandatory in France for dogs and cats born after January 1st, 2012. Add a collar with a tag showing your phone number.
Securing your home
Make sure your garden is properly fenced and that doors cannot be opened easily. Install a safety vestibule at the entrance to prevent rushed exits.
What to do if your pet disappears?
Report the disappearance on Animou immediately to mobilize your neighborhood. Broadcast a precise description with a recent photo. Contact local vets and shelters.
