The AVID ID chips are offered at the Hawaiian Humane Society. All adopted animals have one and they are often offered on special to the public for $5 each. That's when I took my 1 year old dog Moses. All mine are chipped now. That's 1 good point for a group that has many negatives.

All feral cats going there for neutering are chipped. Feral cats also have their ears notched so that trappers can know without touching that a cat has already been done.

June is Love A Cat Month. Kittens and cats can be adopted 2 for the price of 1 ($50). Free food and other goodies too.

My baby Eli was neutered at the Hawaiian Humane Society through another June program of 250 free neuters. I paid $5 for his chip, and he came home with a small shaved area on his tummy and a mark. I thought, how odd for a boy kitty. Found out that the tummy mark is for all kittens that they neuter. It is actually a tattoo. For identifying already neutered tame animals, instead of the notched ears. Good idea.

If you haven't chipped your pet yet, look around, maybe somewhere in your area they are offering specials too.
