LINKS WHICH ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE:
The following excerpts are from the referenced links which were available when Léon was microchipped:

fr.merial.com/companion_animals
•  “Merial…Identification Electronique…Mieux que le tatouage, il y a maintenant l’Identification Electronique”

The latter says, “Merial…Electronic Identification (Microchip)…Better than a tattoo, now there is Electronic Identification.”

fr.merial.com/companion_animals/cats
•  “Cette ‘puce électronique’ est inerte (elle ne possède aucune source d'énergie). Elle ne devient active que lors de la lecture et ne perturbe donc en rien la biologie de l'animal.

Indexel® est équipé d'une cape anti-migration brevetée, unique au monde, assurant son maintien au point d'injection.

Des études scientifiques montrent que ce système, totalement indolore, est parfaitement bien toléré par l'animal, et ne présente aucun risque de démangeaison, d'allergie ou d'abcès. De même, la longue expérience européenne confirme que l'organisme ne manifeste aucun rejet…

Ainsi, Indexel® est le moyen le plus sur d'identifier votre animal préféré.”


This essentially says:

“This ‘electronic chip’ is inert (it does not possess any source of energy). It becomes active only when read and, therefore, in no way disturbs the biology of the animal.

Indexel® is equipped with a patented, anti-migrational cape, unique in the world, which assures that it stays at the injection site.

Scientific studies show that this system, totally painless, is perfectly well tolerated by the animal, and does not present any risk of itchiness, allergy or abscess. Extensive European experience confirms that the body does not reject the microchip…

So, Indexel® is the most sure method of identifying your favourite animal.”

fr.merial.com/companion_animals/identification/identification.asp
•  Merial: Identification Electronique: Indexel:

Y a-t-il un risque pour la santé de mon animal?

Non. La puce électronique est enrobée d’une solide capsule biocompatible à bouts arrondis qui assure une tolérance parfaite: pas de risque de démangeaison, d’allergie ou d'abcès. L’expérience européenne de plus de 10 ans montre qu’il n’y a pas de rejet par l’organisme…

En conclusion, l’identification électronique est une méthode trés fiable qui est amené à remplacer progressivement le tatouage… Elle offre l’avantage indéniable d’être ineffacable, inaltérable, esthétique, internationale et sans danger. Elle est pratiquée sans doleur, sans anesthésie (sauf exception) ni délai.”


This essentially says:

Is there a risk to the health of my animal?

No. The electronic chip is coated with a solid, biocompatible capsule with rounded ends which assures that it is perfectly tolerated: no risk of itchiness, allergy or abscess. More than ten years of European experience show that it is not rejected by the body…

In conclusion, electronic identification is a very reliable method that will progressively replace the tattoo… It offers the undeniable advantage of being unerasable, unalterable, esthetic, international and not dangerous. It is done without pain, without anaesthesia (except the occasional exception) nor delay.”
