The 7 Best Cat Trackers In Review (We Tested Them All)
Рет қаралды 169,013
Күн бұрынThough they’re not a substitute for microchipping and close supervision, cat trackers can help you to keep an eye on your cat when he’s out of sight. With a reliable, accurate tracker, you’ll know when your cat strays from home, where he’s gone, and which direction you need to go to find him.
The best trackers have long battery lives, reliable connections, and ranges large enough to help you find your cat whether he’s lounging on the porch or exploring blocks away.
We independently purchased and tested the following products and are not sponsored by any of the brands mentioned in this video.
After extensive testing, here are our picks for the top 7 best cat trackers on the market:

Hey guys! What's the most important feature in a cat tracker for you? Do you need a tracker that connects to your smartphone, one that works as well indoors as it does outside, or one with a massive range? Is price your top priority or are you willing to pay anything to keep tabs on your cat? Let us know in the comments!
@dirtytreerat14 4 жыл бұрын
My cat has been going outside for a while now. Recently or last night we let him out for the evening and we couldn't find him. We called him and used his favorite treats and he wouldn't come. We do live in a neighborhood with lots of friendly people and they all love him. We think he goes to the mountains, but one day his collar was off and he smelt like someone elses house not the woods. Will the Whistle GO track my cat if he is in someones room? I'm scared that if someone finds him they might take him in their house. This has only happened one time were we smelt it but we just want to be safe. He does go outside and in the woods but if we use the Whistle GO will it work if he is in someone elses house or will the signal shut off letting us know he is inside something? Please answer because I am freaking out and keeping my cat inside because I don't want anyone taking him inside their house or him going to far that we can't find him. If the Whistle GO doesn't work what is the best option? I've seen the pawtrack but it wasn't in this video so I'm not sure. Thank You in advance.
@AllAboutCatsYT 4 жыл бұрын
Hey there, the Whistle GO will not track your cat if he goes inside of someone's house. Similarly, the Pawtrack is also a GPS collar and therefore can't connect to satellites or transmit location data if it's indoors. I'd recommend a good RF tracker like the Pro-Track-Tor or the Marco Polo tracker. Although we didn't list the Marco Polo due to its high price, it's probably the most powerful RF tracker on the market and can help you to locate your cat whether he's in the woods or in a neighbor's home. Hope this helps.

I have a Tab Cat that I have been using for my 1 cat and 3 kittens. 3 days ago one of the 7 month of kittens did not come home and I used the Tab Cat to look for him. I walked in 200 meter radius in all directions from my house which is located among a field and forest.Nothing, silence.Drove around with the Tab Cat in my hand. All my neighbors have been looking for him for 3 days and he is still lost. I held the Tab Cat for 3 nights walking around, calling him. Silence. No cat. Boo Tab Cat. Once the cat is out of range, not a chance. Hope my cat manages to find his own way home. I miss him.

Thank you for this. I've been using the Tractive pet tracker on my cat now for about 5 years after she went missing for a month. I tried a few that were around for the first year but settled on the Tractive ones. They've improved a lot over the years in terms of battery life and size, offer box free cheap replacements if they break (only happened once) or get lost (once). Like always there are pros and cons as you stated in your video - doesn't work indoors (but will tell you which house they are in) or last location before going inside. I was wondering if now there was a better one but will stick with the Tractive I think. My cats are regularly sized and have been wearing these 24/7 for 5 years and no issues. They are 12 and 14 yrs old.

THE VERY BEST DEVICE imho is not a Gps, and it is not in this list... it is the radio transmitter called Cat Locator from com-spec.com. Heavy duty, loooong range, light collar, and super simple: just follow the "Beep beep" of your receiver. Only con.. it is pretty expensive. But i wouldn't want to rely on cheap electronics. Tried it before and returned the products. I have been using this device for 4 years now ! Old school radio transmission and an antenna ! Never failed us. Unfortunately I found no youtube video on that collar, maybe, because the company who manufactures it is mainly producing talky walkies for the Police, so this is just a side activity for them... I wish it was more popular, because what we want is reliability at all times. And I am pretty sure it will last for decades...

As time went on and he was learning I would go little farther till he was understanding his territory. He learnt how to get around the acreage very well, knowing his food dish is “at home”. So far no tracking needed. But a good tracker would be the alternate method

I think this is one area of tech where the UK and Europe have better products available. In the UK we have a pretty good range of GPS trackers including a few that are part of the collar itself like PawTrax, Tractive and PetTracer. The ones being reviewed here look huge by comparison. It might be because in the UK it's unusual to keep house cats - nearly all of them are allowed outside - so maybe there's a bigger market here for these kinds of devices? Hopefully some of these products will break into the US market.

I have five cats. I've gone thru half a dozen of the Girafus, and while the range is excellent, the tags have a serious reliability problem, as well as an uneven battery life problem. There has been an upgrade which is called Guardian Angle. It uses the same type of finder, but the tags, while a bit larger as flat ovals, they have a far better battery holder, and especially has an on/off switch so the life can be extended dramatically. The range is at least 50 yards better than Girafus. The tag alarm is much louder than the Girafus, so one can hear it from a good distance. The only drawback is that when it searches for a tag, all the other tags will emit the alarm signal. No big deal, tho. Neither Girafus nor Guardian Angel have truly adequate anti-water aspects, but I use 7 inch balloons for gIRAFUS and 9 inch for Guardian Angel which can then attached to collar by clear flexible tape. I cut the ends off the balloons, stretch them open with my fingers and insert the tag. Then clear flexi tape to seal.

My kitten is still fairly little, so the tile feels too big as do most of these, which seem designed for dogs. The only size appropriate one seems to be cat tailer. And I don't know how worth it would be to purchase as my kitten is traveling in my van with me. Most of the time he's on leash outside the van. He's not really a dasher and even when I have him out on a long tether/lead usually goes under the van. Still, if he did see an intresting thing to go after one day, these all seem far too big for him to have on his collar.

Getting the position of the tracker using GPS technology is only half of the job that needs to be done. This information has to get to you and that's where cell phone technology is used. The trackers are basically crippled cell phones (no voice calls, no screen, no apps) that need a subscription to send data to the internet. There are trackers that only record GPS data and you could review the path your pet traveled, but only after your pet returned. My first cat lost her collar with this kind of tracker four times, we found the tracker only three times. But we gained a good impression of her territory.

Findster Duo is actually the best, yes it's technically called "Start a Walk" but that really just means "Start tracking" - you don't actually have to go out walking and be around them.

Also not too bulky, the Whistle looks HUGE because it's meant for bigger dogs, I'd never strap that to my cat.

For the moment, we are in a high-rise apartment but will be moving into a house near a canal and I have great fears about her getting out of the house. Based on your video, I suspect a RF would be best so that I can both find her indoors and outdoors, does that sound accurate? I was hoping to find one that would allow for me to be alerted if she got out and left the house/yard because it's a big house and we often go on trips and have cat sitters. Can you tell me if the RF devices like the Eureka Technology MARCOPOLO and Girafus Pro-Track-Tor provide an alert if they get out? Again, many thanks!

Hello ASPS NY, thanks for commenting! I can see why you’d want a good tracker to help you keep tabs on your cat in case she gets out of the new house. You’re right-an RF tracker is the better option for finding your cat indoors as well as outside. But RF trackers also have a big shortcoming, which is that they won’t send you an alert if your cat gets out. Unfortunately, neither of the systems you mentioned will do that. A good GPS tracker, on the other hand, will send an alert if your cat leaves the safe zone. While not all of the GPS trackers did this consistently in our tests, the Whistle GO immediately sent an alert to my smartphone. You can set up the app on multiple devices and it works from any distance, so both you and the sitter could get an alert while you’re away on a trip. As you can see, there’s a bit of a conundrum here. No cat tracker does everything right at the same time, so you’ll have to choose which features are most important to you and which you can live without. Hope this helps you to make a decision! Best, Mallory

Your video is well thought out, serious, and worth whatever affiliate fee you get if any from the products mentioned. I have a question however, is there a tracker that can access my smart phone with a location feature that is inside only and is crowd sourced like the tile GPS? I also would also require as Much accuracy as possible? I hope this makes sense. I would not be adverse to a monthly fee. My use case, is roaming cats in a neighborhood that could be inside or outside. They could go into the subdivision clubhouse and be in any room and still we could not find them in the 15,000 square-foot multi room facility. Thanks a bunch. Put on your best thinking cap. I would like to do business with you.

Hi Robert. What you're describing sounds very similar to the Tile but without the limitations of Bluetooth-something that, to my knowledge, doesn't yet exist. A few products come close in different ways. Besides the Tile, the Findster Duo has an RF mode that uses the Guardian unit-in part an RF receiver-to display those readouts on your phone. It may be possible to build on that idea to create a crowd-sourced, smartphone-connected RF tracker. Something like that would work for your roaming cats and would help you to find them anywhere in your facility, but again, it doesn't seem to exist at this time.

As an electronics engineer who has looked into this, it’s all about getting the electronics size down which always comes down to power to weight / size ratio. To build such a device you need to have a GPS receiver, a controller CPU and a cellular transceiver module. Then there is the battery unit. Having a rechargeable system adds a further weight / size issue but for replaceable battery systems you have the hassle of having to replace the battery. Because the system uses GPS, it can on,y receive information from the satellite and not transmit it has to be “listening” at all times to get its location and this consumes the most power which is significant. I’ve bought complete tracking systems used for tracking cars etc which use all of the “ingredients” above and these are usually about the size of the GPS tracking system reviewed here. For most dogs it’s not a problem as they can carry such a device in their collars but as you all know, these devices are realistically too big for a cat to be comfortable with. Only better technology is likely to reduce the packet but power is probably the biggest problem. I think the device needs to be spread out all around the cats caller and built into the fabric that way you could have a number of collars each of which could be on charge and quick to change over. It’s something that is on my list of items to design so maybe if I can add it to my list of priorities I could come up with a prototype. I think probably the best solution is to forget the GPS and cell phone solution for now and use a system of a radio transmitter device which pairs up with a handheld tracker unit that will allow the owner to “ping” the cat. As long as the tracker isn’t pinging I’d when the cat isn’t missing, the cats system will remain in listening mode. Unlike the GPS the receiver is very low power and can receive a signal from probably miles away easily. The problem is the transmitter is limited in power (again due to battery size) but you could get a few 1000 metres range which would work if you say drove around in your car around a town in a way that could cover a fair,y large area in a short amount of time. I think that is the solution and is featured here in one of the products.

My cat usually stays within a range about 200 meters around our house. But we have a lot of small houses with different gardens. I didn’t want to buy a very expensive tool at the first time, so I bought the Tapcat Locator. For me and my cat, it works very well. She never goes far away - but if she hides where I cannot see her, it is very helpful. Then, my neighbour’s cat disappeared. He was found playing with children several hundert meters away, he even crossed a busy street :/ for him a GPS would be better in the end but that is quite expensive. So I just gave her the 2nd Tabcat transmitter and as long as the cat stays in the neighbourhood, I was able to find him within a few minutes, hidden under the bushes or so. Of course I have to walk around until I get the signal, but that is no problem. I find it also more safe as it would be possible to locate the cat inside a garage or another house. I just had to learn how to use the receiver properly, but now I am quite happy with it. It is recommended for people with small budget and a cat that stays in the direct neighbourhood.
@HelenaRG71 2 жыл бұрын
Reading my own comment I wrote a year ago, I am still happy with the Tabcat. My cat lost her collar one day and I found it within 30 seconds in the neighbours garden 50 meters away. This would be much more difficult with a GPS as it cannot tell you exactly on the centimeter where you have to look. The collar could be everywhere, even in a tree or somewhere above your head. Same with my neighbour’s cat wearing my other tabcat: he also lost his collar a few times now and I found it also very fast. And we know now where his preferred area for wandering around is, so I my search goes there first and I am mostly successful. It is also very important to use a safety collar which opens when it has to or the cat could die or get hurt. Wrong collars can kill your cat!

I started with a Tile tracker. That lasted a few months, but the range wasn't good and couldn't reach the backs of people's yards when walking down the street. There were obviously no other Tile users in my area, as it never connected with anyone else (I live in a typical late sixties suburban neighborhood). Cat pulled his collar off one day while escaped from the yard (I also use Cat Fencin product), and I was not able to locate the lost Tile. Then I moved on to Tractive (GPS) - the smaller cat version, which seems to no longer be available. That worked well, although I had to charge it every night. It would give spurious bounce signals occasionally, but was I was reasonably happy with it, and the live tracking was great. The unit was getting kind of beat-up though, so I didn't renew that subscription at the end of the year because you can't get the small cat one anymore. Next up, was Pawtrack. Had that for about 3 months. The wifi zone on that is pretty big, so unless you turn wifi off, you have no idea where your cat is -could be anywhere for several houses in any direction. Had to swap the battery every day, but at least they give you two to start. Same cat has now lost that collar - destroyed it in getting it off (or someone removed it), and trashed it, as there was no signal from it once it left wifi. Will probably get a replacement even though I find the GPS not quite as good as the Tractive. Going to also try Tabcat with Tile combined too. Fingers crossed - my cat is a total Houdini. (Note - I am in Canada, so not all GPS trackers are available here).

Hey Kim, yes-heavy tree cover will interfere with the signal and your map won't be completely accurate. If your cat wanders into a garage, the tracker will show where he was last seen, but it won't be 100% spot on, especially if there's quite a lot of tree cover. It can work, but a radio frequency collar is going to be more versatile in treed areas or going in and out of buildings.

A friend let me borrow her Tabcat which was great and more economical, but they've been out of stock for almost a year. I'm happy to hear about the Girafus with an even better range than Tabcat, I'm definitely going to get those . But I feel like I need GPS and RF, so I'm looking into Jiobit because it looks a bit smaller than my old Whistle.

The quick-release buckle will ensure that your cat can safely get out of any tight situations. Of course, there's a chance that your cat will lose the GPS tracker along with their collar, but that's a chance worth taking-especially considering that you should be able to find the GPS tracker with your phone. If your cat's comfortable with them, harnesses can also work! I strapped the Whistle Go onto the webbing straps of my cats' RC Pet harnesses. While not the best choice for all-day, all-the-time tracking, attaching the tracker to your cat's harness is a good option when you're out for a walk. Hope this helps!

You have to locate by triangulation. It has a 1 mile range granted that is line of sight. But if you drive around you will eventually find your animal. Found my cat a few times far from my house. The tracking unit is over $200 and each collar is $50 but it is worth it. The collar tracker is a little over 1 in - smaller than every one in your review. Their tracker is not a toy like all of the trackers in your review. The company is a serious radio freq company selling very high tech telemetry electronics for industry and falconry. The decided to apply this to a pet locator and scaled down the falcon tracker, which has many mile range, to a 1 mile range.

The two main problems are the longevity of the akku and of course the weight. Now my cat weighed only 3.7 kg, so a 40 gr tracker would equal me carrying around 1.2 kg around the neck all day! Of course it's different if you have a 8 kg cat but still do the math folks and think if you want to burden your pet with that weight. Design is also important as most trackers so far are too buldgy and the weight is concentrated on one spot.

Bluetooth trackers including Pawscout are pretty well useless, unless you're tracking an indoor only cat. I struggle to find him in my own yard. The range and accuracy is bad, as bluetooth wasn't meant for this kind of thing. Don't waste the money if your cat is a wanderer. Strongly recommend a high end RF tracker, if not a good GPS service as my first choice. With GPS you have to expect sometimes it could be spotty or not pin-point accurate all the time, but you'll have a good idea where to look. With RF you won't always know where to start looking, but once you have the signal it'll lead you directly to them. Cheaper means lesser quality, and potentially useless if your cat goes missing. At least with GPS and RF, you can still locate the device if the cat looses it. Spend the money on the better quality product, some day you'll be glad you did.
