Leeton Shire Council is conducting a free microchipping day for dogs and cats at the Leeton Shire Council Pound, 10-16 Massey Avenue, Leeton, on Saturday, 30 May 2026, between 9am and 1pm.
Council's free microchipping day is being held to encourage responsible pet ownership.
"If your cat or dog becomes lost, you are far more likely to be reunited if they are microchipped," said Council's Manager Planning, Building and Health Francois Van Der Berg.
"Should your pet wander or become lost, Council, vets and animal shelters can scan your pet for a microchip and contact you via the Companion Animal Registry database. All in all, less stress for you and your furry best friend."
Dog and cat owners need to arrange an appointment time for the microchipping day and complete the relevant form/s at the Leeton Shire Council office located at 23–25 Chelmsford Place prior to 30 May 2026.
Please note all dogs need to be on a leash. No aggressive dogs will be accepted. All cats must be in a carry cage.
