$20 and painless.. you'll never have your pet put down.
I saw a news story a couple of weeks ago about a dog being put down, even though it was chipped, before his owners could get to the pound to pick it up.

Apparently it was chipped at PetCo's vet service and the chips they use are not compatible with the scanners at most vet and shelter offices in the US.

I am paranoid about someone "borrowing" my dog. I don't know if I'd remember how to type without her sitting just above the keyboard, trying to help.
