Each 134.2 kHz microchip boasts a unique 15-digit numeric ID number. They adhere to international animal identification standards (ISO 11784/ISO 11785) and are certified by the International Committee for Animal Recording (ICAR).
The minuscule RFID device is implanted by a pet professional just above a pet’s shoulder blades, in the subcutaneous tissue. It awakens when scanned, using harmless radio waves to reveal its unique ID.
Every Peeva microchip and its data is securely stored in our central pet registry and recovery database. Microchip IDs are also featured in other registries, like the AAHA Pet Microchip Lookup, so that any vet or shelter can find it.
