Ensure Your Rabbit’s Safety with Maven Vets
Microchipping your rabbit is a simple yet effective way to ensure their safety and increase the likelihood of reuniting with them if they ever go missing. While microchipping is commonly associated with cats and dogs, rabbits also benefit greatly from this permanent form of identification.
Rabbits are naturally curious animals and may escape by digging under fences or hopping over enclosures. Unlike cats or dogs, rabbits cannot wear collars comfortably, making microchipping the most reliable way to keep them safe.

What Is Rabbit Microchipping?
Rabbit microchipping is a straightforward procedure that involves inserting a tiny chip—about the size of a grain of rice—just under the skin at the back of the neck. This chip holds a unique identification number that can be read by a scanner.
Most veterinary clinics, including Maven Vets, as well as rescue centres and local authorities, have scanners to read these chips. If your rabbit is found, their microchip can quickly link to your contact details through a central database, making it easy to reunite you with your pet.
Once implanted, the microchip remains with your rabbit for life. It’s vital to keep your contact details in the database up to date to ensure you can be reached if your rabbit goes missing.

Why Should You Microchip Your Rabbit?
While it’s legally required for dogs and cats to be microchipped in the UK, it’s also highly recommended for rabbits. Rabbits are prone to escaping their enclosures, and without a form of identification, they can be difficult to recover.
Microchipping significantly increases the likelihood of reuniting with your pet, as vets and rescue centres routinely scan stray animals. This quick, simple, and permanent solution offers peace of mind to rabbit owners.

Rabbit Microchipping Services at Maven Vets
At Maven Vets, we prioritise your rabbit’s safety and comfort. Our experienced team can microchip your rabbit during a routine appointment without the need for sedation. The process is similar to receiving a vaccination, causing minimal discomfort.
If you’re unsure whether your rabbit is already microchipped, we can use a handheld scanner to check. If no chip is detected, we’ll proceed with the implantation. Our team also ensures no duplicate chips are implanted by thoroughly scanning beforehand.
During the appointment, we’ll register your rabbit’s microchip in a national database. This one-time registration lasts for your rabbit’s entire life. If your contact details change, it’s essential to update the database to maintain the effectiveness of the microchip.
