| 29118 | 98461900ef63f05e | 2.50(c) | 1 | Time and method of identification. | The domestic cats maintained by the licensee still do not have official identification as required by the Animal Welfare Act. The licensee currently identifies the adult domestic cats by name on the APHIS 7005 records but none of the 7 adult cats have official USDA identification. The licensee stated that she has spoken with her attending veterinarian and has plans to microchip all the adult animals. Not having proper identification can cause misidentification of animals on inspections, veterinary care documentation, acquisition and disposition records. In addition, it makes positive identification of medical treatment and sales impossible to track. The Licensee must ensure that an official USDA sequentially numbered tag is placed on the animal with a collar or kept on the door of the animas cage or run, or an approved tattoo or microchip is used to positively identify the animals. |
