The perfect gifts.....

for your beloved pets are, ID tags (may be purchased at Ben Franklin, White's Rental, Rainy River Vet Hospital  or on-line on numerous sites) and City license tags (may be purchased at City Hall or the BHS Holding Facility).  Both of these forms of identification will help us return your beloved pet to you if s/he ends up at the holding facility.  If you do not use ID tags, think about using a sharpie and duct tape and writing your phone number on it and placing the information on the inside of your pet's collar.
