The Cherokee County Animal Shelter announced free microchipping for dogs and cats on four dates in November.

Microchipping will be offered on a first-come, first-served, walk-in basis from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Nov. 17, 18, 24 and 25, at the Animal Shelter Adoption Building, 1015 Univeter Road, Canton; and at the Intake Building, 131 Chattin Drive, Canton.

Pets must be on a leash or in a secure carrier. This free service is not available for prior no shows, breeders, rescue groups or pet businesses.

Completion of pre-registration paperwork before arrival will significantly expedite one’s visit, the shelter said. A registration form must be filled out for each pet. To do so online: https://goo.gl/forms/ANiwp3TCC1KVsBSc2
