How do people solve this problem now?

There are hundreds of websites and facebook groups that are used now that share pet information via bulletin board- like posts, but no central registry. There are a variety of microchip databases, but they are not synchronized and require a RFID reader. Too many pets go lost that could be easily returned and at-risk strays often are not identified and helped. CatMapped solves these problems.
