Please take the time to check your pet's microchip registry details, and update as necessary. 👍
UPDATE: Any registrations to AAR are on hold until they receive the go ahead to process them. There are some talks of a new owner for the Homesafeid company. We will advise any further updates on this continuously changing situation. Our main concern being that lost pets may not be able to be reunited. Let's hope it is fixed soon.
We would recommend to complete the following steps to ensure the safety of your pet in the mean time.
Ensure your pet's details are registered and current with your local council/shire/city (N.B Pet registration and microchipping are 2 different things). Add a personalised ID tag with your contact details on your pet’s collar. These two steps will give you some protection if your microchip details are not accessible.

Important Microchip Information for Pet Owners
Microchip registries store your contact & pet's details and are accessed by vets/councils allowing us to reunite animals with their families!
We have been informed that the microchip registry Homesafe ID has gone into receivership and is no longer operational.
What this means for you and your pet:
Your pet’s microchip will still stay active & a new microchip does not need to be implanted.
However, there is limited access to the online database including the inability to update details and in some circumstances details cannot be accessed at all.
What you need to do:
Check your pet's microchip registration at www.petaddress.com.au to see which register your pet is listed with.
If your pet is microchipped with Homesafe, it might be a good idea to get your pet scanned and registered with a new provider to ensure you can update and manage your contact information.
Ensure your pet's details are registered and current with your local council/shire/city (N.B Pet registration and microchipping are 2 different things). Add a personalised ID tag with your contact details on your pet’s collar. These two steps will give you some protection if your microchip details are not accessible.
If you're unsure about your pet’s microchip number or provider, or if you’d like to verify it is registered correctly, bring them in for a quick scan. It’s always a good idea to make sure your details are up-to-date.
