If you aren’t sure which database your pet’s microchip is registered with, you can search the chip number at https://www.check-a-chip.co.uk/ If you don’t know the chip number, you should be able to get a vet or organisation such as the RSPCA or PDSA to scan your pet and give you the number. There are also many voluntary organisations who have scanners and would be happy to check your pet’s microchip for you
