Cat Nav

This little device would tell you where your little 'angel' has been - but do you want to know?

My vet's cat wears a GPS device - he's paranoid about losing his cat since our Rover went missing. I must admit if Rover had had one, we'd have found him muh quicker!

I suppose it would be good if Basil ever went missing. But does it sound totally stupid to say that part of cats' appeal is their mystery?

[Kiki-frog]

Yes actually it does sound totally stupid.

this won't be much help if they go missing as its not a live update - you need to plug the thing in to your computer when the cat comes home to see where its been (rather than seeing where it actually is).

Yes Kiki, it does lol

[RATTER15]

I can see a few of those devices being slipped into husbands and wives bags etc!!

See where they actually have been!

That's why my vet's cat has a GPS device, so he can actually track where it is, live.

Probably trying to kill my chickens or crapping on my lawn, I hate cats. Get a pet you actually look after instead of one everyone else helps you look after.

Although I am very biased because it tries to harm my chickens. But I will throttle it if it touches one.

A cat's appeal is its mystery lol....no....it's crapping on my lawn, there's no mystery there :P

(Please note I am not actually going to throttle a cat, I simply threaten it with this everytime I have to shoo it out of my garden. Shame they can't understand me.)

[wolf63]

eevwee - it isn't that cats don't understand, it's that they don't care that you are annoyed.

I can understand your frustration at other people's cats visiting your property and doing 'cat stuff'.

I find them interesting animals - very complex and quite manipulating. But I find that whilst most people like/tolerate dogs people either love or hate cats.

I know that you aren't going to hurt the visitors - I also threaten to throttle my two and threaten them with a trip to Korea in a wheelie bin.

They are currently sprawled all over the sofa - looking like little angels!
