#mobiPETPreOrder-Amber Alert For Pets and a Chance to Try It For Yourself

Many of my readers know that in October 2012 , I lost my brother, Zen. Zen was a toy chihuahua who was there one minute and gone the next. What happened to him , we don't know. We are still searching for him. 

We have searched and searched but we haven't found him. It would have been great if there was a Amber Alert for missing pets because time is the essence when a pet goes missing. We put up flyers, contacted vets and shelters and talked to everyone in the area the day he went missing. During this time that we were doing all that we did Zen could have been spotted by someone if only there was a type of alert system. According to statistics 1 in 3 pets get lost during their lifetimes. Over 10,000 pets are reported missing or stolen everyday. 

A microchip is essential but did you know that vets do not scan a pet that someone brings in and says they just got it?? The only time a scan is done is when someone says they found the pet. There are thousands of pets who are stolen everyday that are chipped but unless a vet has a probable cause they don't scan for it. Shelters will scan for chips if a pet is brought in as a stray but a stolen pet can go undetected if its not turned into a shelter. 

Wouldn't it be great if there was a system that issued a Amber Alert? A program that would alert area vets, shelters within a 30 mile radius or neighbors who live in a 2 mile radius who are registered with the system. 

Now there is a photo amber alert in the works that can do just that!! Its called mobiPet . 

mobiPet works with ALL carriers, ALL camera phones that have text messaging capability and there is NO apps or software downloads needed.

There is a fee of $24.95 to buy the engraved metal tag with unique code and comes with 3 key rings with instructions on how to report your missing pet. This $24.95 is a lifetime fee. Pay it once and your done. 

When you receive your tag , you follow the easy instructions on the back to activate it. You can register the tag from your phone or your computer. Once registered, you can visit the website and add or edit your information at any 

time .

We decided that since my kitty, Molly Mew likes to run out the door every once in a while, we would use the tag for her. She has a tag on with her name and ma's number but if her cat safety collar breaks and falls off, there can be a amber alert already on her. All we have to do is TEXT the word LOST to mypet@agm.tw. A photo alert and our information goes out to all the animal shelters, vets and neighbors.You can view here to see a sample. This can also be shared on Facebook. 

 Molly Mew likes to travel with us. If we are away from home and she goes missing , we will receive a test message to verify our location or we can add another location. The alert will then go out to the shelters and vets in that area. 

mobiPet has been in testing for over a year in the Hilton Head area in South Carolina. This product has been tried and tested. Its only available in the US right now but hopes to be released for other countries at the end of 2014.
