CHENNAI: The Greater Chennai Corporation will hold special camps on November 9, 16, and 23 to help pet owners register/renew licences and get vaccinations done.
The one-day camps will run from 8 am to 5 pm at six veterinary centres across the city. Pet owners can apply for new licences or renew existing ones, submit documents, have their pets examined, and receive guidance from the corporation's veterinary staff.
Pet owners must bring a copy of their identity proof, the pet's anti-rabies vaccination certificate, and a photograph of the animal. A fee of Rs 50 per pet will be collected. Officials will verify the documents and guide visitors through the registration or renewal process.
The civic body has advised pet owners to ensure that their animals are vaccinated before applying, as licences will not be issued without valid vaccination proof. Those who have not yet registered are urged to complete the process before November 23, after which penalties may apply for unlicensed pets.
