I agree Kay, a microchip is certainly not going to hurt and at least it gives your pet some kind of chance of being reunited with you if lost.

Nebo has an AVID microchip. It was around $30. I had it done at the vet and it links back to them...so I have to make sure if I ever change my address or phone number I call them and have the info updated. It also came with a tag for his collar which he wears.
Drake's microchip is Home Again. We had him chipped at the vet on post when Andrew was at Ft. Rucker. Any active duty, reservists, or retired military that lives on post or uses the post vet has to have their pet microchipped. It was $15 for the chip and $10 for the lifetime registration with free change of information (makes sense since military folks are always moving)! Home Again lets you change your contact info online. Very convenient!
Right now, we do not live on post, but when we did in Alabama, many pets had gotten loose on base and then reunited with their families after being picked up.
