Your furry mate could use a health MOT and you've been putting it off because vet bills are no joke. Well, Bangkok's making it ridiculously easy to sort your pet out without spending a baht. Iconsiam teams up with the Bangkok Department of Health, PETs CARE and PET Safari this weekend for a proper pet wellness event that's completely free.

Professional veterinary teams set up shop at PET Safari every first weekend of the month, starting March 7 and 8, offering health checkups, microchip implantation, pet registration and rabies vaccination from 10am to 6pm. It's walk-in only though, so timing matters. They handle 100 microchip and registration slots per day and 200 rabies jabs daily. The service covers dogs and cats exclusively.

Things to know before bringing your pet to check in

Your pet needs to be healthy and not currently under treatment. Age-wise, they should be at least three months old for vaccination. Safety is non-negotiable, so bring them on a leash, in a cage or using a pet stroller while you're wandering around. And grab your ID card because they'll need to verify it.

Document wise, here's what to bring along

  1. Pet owner's ID card
  2. Copy of house registration where the pet lives
  3. Certificate (KLS.1) and Registration Application Form (KLS.2), available at the event
  4. Power of Attorney if someone else brings your pet

The whole setup happens at ICONSIAM on floor B1 in the Escalator Lobby B, right in front of the PET Safari shop.

Two days only, completely free, and your four-legged friend gets proper care from trained professionals.
