OK, this is a spinoff of a discussion on my cat forum. It's a poll about "does your cat wear a collar?", and someone who works at a shelter reminded everyone that a rabies tag isn't sufficient as I.D. because the shelter isn't going to call every vet in town to find out which vet issued that tag number and has your contact info. Which I thought was odd because every rabies tag I've ever gotten (from many different vets including a low-cost spay/neuter clinic and an overseas military vet) has the vet office's name and contact info, along with the serial number for I.D. purposes. I said that and several people said that was weird because their cats' rabies tags only have the year, a serial number, and the name of the city/county. I realize a rabies tag isn't sufficient I.D. regardless of what's on it but it made me curious about what's most commonly put on rabies tags.
This is what's on my dogs' tags:
