Pet identification tag making in Kenya

Durable pet tags with approved contact details

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional order: produce ten personalised identification tags from prefinished 30 mm round anodised-aluminium blanks, each with the owner-approved pet name and one contact number. Use a documented engraving service or a trained operator with a suitable enclosed machine. Include ten compatible split rings. Tags provide readable contact information; they do not replace required identification systems or guarantee recovery of a lost pet. Do not collect the owner’s home address unless separately justified.
