Every year, a large number of animals go missing from their owners. Many get lost, some get injured, and some are stolen or abducted. If your animal is ID-marked, you increase the likelihood of getting your animal home again, should it unfortunately go missing. If the animal is injured, a veterinarian will be able to contact you and offer veterinary assistance more quickly.
