So a while back there were a lot of people giving my master a hard time about not getting me fitted with an RFID micro-chip.  Even the vet (who by the way stood to make some cash off of the deal if I got one) recommended it.  Now how ethical is that.  What kind of doctor was this guy pawning some procedure off on my master just to make a buck.  Doesn’t seem ethical for the ‘ol doc to decide I need a micro chip just so he can upgrade to the larger yacht.

Well, my master didn’t buy into the hype… not even after I escaped and he spent two-plus hours driving around the neighborhood looking for me last Monday night… that will be a separate blog article by the way.

It turns out those little RFID tags can cause cancer when stuck inside the body.  The article on Yahoo! points out that it was tested on lab rats.  Thank the Lord for having these little creatures on earth to bare the brunt of medical testing.  I don’t think I could stand it if lab rats didn’t exist and humans decided to use puppies.  Of course, I guess they could always use cats if lab rats didn’t exist.  Alas, that’s entirely beside the point.  This newfound link to cancer is just an added reason why I’m opposed to micro-chipping any living thing.  I think my collar and name tag are quite sufficient. 

Rub my belly, leave me some comments!!!
