Require Local Authority to scan cats and dogs if found deceased

Petition Details

Require all Local Authorities to scan the microchip of cats and dogs if found deceased. So many pets go missing and although it is a requirement on responsible owners like myself to make sure they are microchipped, I believe that not all deceased pets are scanned. This must be addressed.

Additional Information

I call on the Government to make it a legal requirement for all deceased dogs and cats to be scanned after they have been found. I think this could stop the heartbreaking continued search for lost family members! My cat has been missing 5 weeks and only learned recently the microchip might not bring him back if picked up by the local council
