Lili is chipped - which is completely pointless as she never sticks her precious nose outside the door.
The only trouble with chipping is that although the rescue charities scan new arrivals automatically when they find strays, at the moment vets DON'T. I started at my vet for example and they never chipped any of my new animals to check they really belonged to me.
So unless someone reports him as a stray, which it seems they haven't because he's so well cared for, he is unlikely to be scanned for a chip. Plus I feel a bit wary about spending the money when he's going to swan off in 2 weeks. it's not like I can force him to stay here without locking him in and thatwouldn't be fair on Sevvie.
