Residents in Minhang District are now able to register their pets and make a reservation for pet vaccinations on a mobile app, district police said yesterday.

After registering and making an appointment online, people need only to vaccinate their pets at designated clinics where the pets have been registered. This saves owners the trouble of going to the police station for pet registration. People can choose from 26 pet clinics in the district which cover all subdistricts and towns. The online service is held on the “Suishenban” app, but it is available only in Chinese.
