Tractive Smart Cat Tracker Mini | #1 Cat GPS | Real-Time Location Tracking | Territory & Location History | Safety Collar included (Mint)

Absolutely brilliant tracker. Not too bulky and cat took to wearing it easily. Virtual fences also make tracking much easier. Great subscription packages, although they do seem high, but for any cat parent it's worth it

It works in semi rural area, has battery saving mode, simple to use, signal quality is good and I even kept track of him whilst not being at home. Yes I had to pay a subscription but for the peace of mind, it was worth the premium package which was under £200 for 2 years. So far it has stayed attached to the cat. The cat snuck out today, pitch black morning, saw him on the app, as I got closer, I get to. Activate a light mode and a sound mode to light up the tracker and made a noise so I could see him playing hide and seek in the bushes, not far from home. Soon as he realised he was spotted, he happily trotted over to follow me home. The light and sound mode is best used when closer to the tracker or it will waste battery. Plus if they lose the collar with tag, you can always retrieve it back due to the light and sound function. The only downside and why it didn't get 5 star is the battery life. I get a good 2-3 days usage before it needs charging again but that is due to me always curious and switching on live tracking when he's out and about rather than leave him be and look on the history later to see where he has been. The other downside is the size. It's fine for a small westie type size dog but I find it a bit bulky for a cat. My cat did have to get used to wearing it, I left it on the cat when he was indoors to get used to walking with it and he managed to remove it until I had to tighten the collar and adjust the strength of the lock release mechanism on the collar provided. It does take the cat a few days to get used to bulky tracker around his neck. If I had a maine coon cat then it wouldn't look so out of place with their extra fluff and extra bigger size.

I’ve been using the Tractive GPS cat tracker for my adventurous cat, and I’m thoroughly impressed! Features: - I love the virtual fence that sends an alert whenever my cat strays beyond our set boundaries. - Plus, the territory analysis gives me insight into my cat's roaming habits and where he get's his daily snacks from. - Live Tracking works solid when needed - Scoreboard is a nice to have, but I think it's more relevant for dog owners (walking the dog or similar) Battery: While the website mentions a battery life of up to 7 days, mine lasted a solid 10 days using the power saving zone I set up — definitely a pleasant surprise. Subscription: Pricing is okay, especially when you go for a longer period as the monthly costs go down. But thinking about the features and the peace of mind you get it's definitely worth it. Overall, it’s a fantastic combination of safety and health tracking, making it an essential tool for any cat parent. Highly recommend!

The GPS works well and it's very interesting to know where my cat goes, the truth is that it has given me a lot of peace of mind. There are two things that I see wrong. The first is that when you buy a second or more GPS you have to pay a separate subscription for each GPS, in my case I have three cats and I would have to pay three individual subscriptions and we are talking about almost £300 a year, it seems very bad to me that there is no premium or family plan for multiple pets. The second thing I don't like is the battery capacity, you have to charge the GPS every two/three days, charging it once a week for me would be perfect but it is not the case. Is it a product that I recommend? Yes but keep these factors in mind

DO NOT BUY THESE! COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY. First up, battery lasts less the 48 hours. Your cat is out for a couple of days, tracking gone. Secondly, the "radar" function doesn't work at all. The feature is supposed to help narrow down where you cat is as GPS is only accurate to about 30 feet. You can be 5 feet from the tracker, hit the button and it will tell you Bluetooth out of range. I bought two of these £300 down the pan. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

Great

Tractive are the best by far that we have used. When our cat snagged her collar in inaccessible gorse, I managed to locate the area, but the gorse was so dense I couldn’t get in without a machete (I’m being literal). The accuracy, though? Better than personal GPS. So we ordered a new one and it was here in 24 hours. She shook the collar, somehow, yesterday, and I was able to go out and locate it, practically to the square inch, using the Live and Radar features. This reinforced the accuracy, and we can always track her return to her home turf, when the rain starts, with pinpoint precision. Sound could be louder, it has to be admitted, but you’ll rarely find a product that is entirely perfect. It has to be quiet to hear it, but given the size, I’d sooner have the pinpoint accuracy than sacrifice any other existing feature for a more audible beep! Besides, the light helps, when dusk comes down, and it’s loud enough that I heard it, yesterday, when searching (albeit just, and not while traffic was passing). That being said, I wouldn’t trust my lovely Maine Coon to anything else, as it shows where she spends her day, for how long and plots her health and favourite spots, as well. For the price, and with such ridiculously low subscription fees, you know your pet is totally safe with these compact, quick-charging trackers. The range is good, as long as there is WiFi, they use satellite maps, are extraordinarily strong and durable (our old unit was run over by a speeding nutjob, when my wife dropped the tracker, having taken it off the cat, while taking her to the cattery, and it showed zero ill effects, working perfectly up until it’s aforementioned loss). Tractive are also very easy to contact and provide assistance, with any issues. I would not go anywhere else, now. Recommended, 1000%!!

Bought this as my cat suddenly started staying out all night in summer, hes is neutured I had one cat went missing for a month & i didnt want to go through the heartbreak of not knowing if he's dead or alive again. This does give piecebof mind that I guess I could find him should anythjng happen. Now I've got used to it I realise it's a bit slow at tracking Tommy's movement, by a minute . But I can see where he is , and he had regular routes, a creature of habit and really pleased he rarely crosses a road . Always within the back to back gardens in the block . It does need charging every 2 or 3 days depending on how much you live track. In the beginning had to charge every day as constantly tracking drains the battery, but now the novelty has worn off, or maybe as he's not out late now summer is over i dont track much . Summer was a worry as he suddenly started living it up and staying out untill early hours . Just chasing field mice. Funny to watch him running in circles around the same gardens night after night. The light is good to spot him if hes within eye distance , you can turn it on & off from your mobile. However the sound is useless , I can't hear it unless I literally hold it against my ear and I don't have hearing problems. You can set safe zones , which if he leaves it, you get a notification. The collar it comes with and the silicone holder are really good. Not had any problems with them coming off. I remove it in the night and put it on charge for a top up and have had it 6 months and still silicone holder hasn't stretched as some reviews say. So overall I'm pleased with it and would highly recommend for peace of mind . So easy to set up too..

Il Mio Amico peloso è ed è sempre stato un vagabondo ed il sottoscritto era perennemente in apprensione dopo qualche ora che non si faceva vedere. Con il GPS Tractive ho risolto il mio problema (e sottolineo che il problema era proprio solo mio perché quando tornava aveva quello sguardo che significava: “Beh? Sono un gatto quindi vedi di abituarti”). Ho cominciato ad utilizzarlo quando ancora esisteva solo la versione standard ed ero comunque molto soddisfatto, tenuto anche conto che il mio Micio pesa 7 Kg., ma da quando è arrivato il modello mini è semplicemente perfetto. Nonostante le ridotte dimensioni la batteria ha una lunga durata e mi permette di tenerlo costantemente sott’occhio. Complimenti a Tractive per l’ottimo lavoro.

Spisuje sie wspaniale , kilka razy sciagalismy juz kotka bo za daleko sie zapuscil. Uzywamy juz kilka miesiecy, nigdy nie zawiodlo.

Estupendo. Funciona perfecto. Puedo localizar a mi gato en todo momento.

Bien se décharge vite quand il ne capte pas il tient max 48h mais dépanne bcp. C'est pas pour mon chat c'est pour mon fils qui n'a as encore l'âge d'avoir un téléphone sur lui. Je connaissais déjà pour mon chien, c'est le mieux que j'ai trouvé sur le marché pour un enfant! Ils devraient nous en faire pour nos enfants encore plus précieux que les animaux !

Thought it might be bulky but our small Manx doesn’t mind it at all. It’s been amazing to see where he goes during the day! Longer battery would be good but it’s a really quick charge.
