Rudy is at the vet today getting the dirty deed done.
I asked them to go ahead and put a chip in him.
...said they put it under the skin with a needle and is pretty much painless.

Yep, the humane society and rescue places around here do it automatically too.
Vet is charging 50 bucks...reasonable.

Mine has one. The foster people's got it for him though, so I didn't see it done. They just changed over the info on the chip after I adopted.
I have his records though, and it only cost $20.

My Abyssinian was chipped.
It's not necessarily about how 'expensive' the animal is, Jezza - it's about being able to get him/her back quickly if they get out and get lost, or abducted.

Sorry, but if you animal is stolen, you're not likely getting them back. If I was buying a sketchy animal off craigslist, I'm certainly not about to go check to see if it's chipped to have my investment disappear.
This lends into the cost anyway, people don't steal mutts, they aren't going to be able to sell them.
If an animal regularly goes outside, they know where they live, they know how to get back to where they live. If my animal was hit by a car or otherwise injured, the vet or pound would have the license and collar information to contact me with. My animals aren't afraid of fireworks, or any loud noises really, which is the only reason I've ever known an animal to run off and get lost.
So at least for me, there is no point beyond protecting my $20 from being stolen.
