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

I bought a tracker for our kitten that was sold as a cat tracker but I started to notice it was saying he was in areas miles from where we live which was impossible. When I looked into this further I found that they should not be used for cats so did a bit more research and found Tractive to be the gold standard tracker for cats. I'm really worried about our little boy crossing the road behind our house and this tracker has a function that allows you to set virtual 'fences' so that you get alerts if they go within that area. I know it won't stop our boy going there but it settles my mind knowing that he is not going across the road very often. Our boy is quite wee at almost 1yr old and I would say that is my only gripe with this tracker as it is quite bulky. It does however have a good rechargable battery life and we have only needed to charge it once since we got it around 1-2 weeks ago. We choose to remove it when he comes in at night for comfort but to be fair although bulky he actually doesn't seem to mind at all. I have found this tracker to be extremely accurate and have actually done some tests to check and it is pretty spot on. I hate having to pay another subscription but it is worth it for peace of mind as Salem is a VERY loved wee boy. It also has helpful features monitoring health and the leaderboard and other cat info is good fun. I bought a couple of extra rubber covers but actually the one that come with it seems pretty durable. It was also easy to set up and was compatible with my husband and I's android/Samsung phone sand my kids iphones. I feel price wise this is a good quality product but the subscription prices are a rubbish. Overall however, I would purchase this again for peace of mind and accuracy alone.

Really happy with the purchase, this is our third cat tracker. We have upgraded from Apple tags which do not allow accurate tracking living in a rural environment. The tracking app is very good and allows us to see where our boys are at anytime. It amazed us just how far they roam, hunting in the fields around our house. The gps sim subscription does seem very expensive but we don’t smoke or drink and peace of mind is so worth it. I still do not understand the virtual fence and how to set it up effectively but that would require reading the instructions. Very easy to set up via the app and doesn’t seem to inhibit the cats movements. Battery life isn’t brilliant 2 days to 3 days so monitoring battery status is important as when it does go flat you lose sight of where the cats are. And such as everything nowadays you need a smart phone for full functionality.

Great product, not happy that it wasn’t disclosed that you have to pay a year subscription UPFRONT! £120 pounds later I can see my cat and track his health and sleep patterns. Supplier should make this more clear.

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..

Our adventurous cat managed to slip the collar 3 times in the first week, finally in an inaccessible place. So, the safety catch works, but perhaps a little too well, despite checking the fit and weight setting after each loss. We decided to cancel the subscription and not replace it, as she obviously wasn't going to keep it on. It was good to see her territory, when she was wearing it. However, when she lost it, the accuracy of the Bluetooth was not enough to find it. The signal 'hops' around. We had to go to the woodland at twilight and use the light feature to track it down. The battery did last longer than expected though. The noise is inaudible for the purposes of finding it in woodland. Customer service was good though, when I sought to cancel the subscription.

We have a small cat so have always been put off by tracker collars due to size. Our little one refuses to wear any other collar and constantly lost them. However, she went missing a few weeks back and we never want to go through that again. Hence buying a tracking collar! This one exceeded our expectations, decent tracking level, nice to see the history of her travels and battery life works well for us (she stays in overnight so we take it off and charge it then). Would definitely reccomend if you want to keep an eye on your cat. Obviously it’s not tiny, but it’s the smallest one we found with good reviews and we are happy with it, it doesn’t seem to bother her much she is still catching things (despite the bell) and doesn’t fight us when we put it on in the morning!

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%!!

Absolutely brilliant tracker. I am a very anxious cat owner having had three cats die on the roads. My cat Percy was therefore a house cat but he was unhappy and clearly wanted to go outside. So I bought him one of these trackers and it works brilliantly. It’s sturdy, hasn’t fallen off him yet, has good battery life, is really accurate on the tracking side of things, and it doesn’t bother him at all to wear. Mind you he is a big cat at 7 kg! So to conclude, I have to say the tracker has done exactly what I wanted it to do. The reason I bought it was 50% to keep Percy safe, and 50% stop to stop me from getting anxious. And it’s worked! Highly recommended.

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

Un invento magnífico. Nuestro gato vive bastante salvaje, ya que vivimos en una zona con mucho campo, y antes siempre estábamos preocupados cuando no regresaba en varias horas. Ahora sabemos en todo momento dónde está, conocemos su territorio y entendemos mucho mejor sus hábitos cuando no está en casa. La batería dura sorprendentemente bien para lo pequeño que es, sobre todo utilizando el modo de ahorro de energía, que aun así permite activar el seguimiento en tiempo real cuando se necesita. La aplicación es intuitiva, muy completa y fácil de usar.

Facile à utiliser Une très bonne couverture GPS précise. Peut-être une autonomie de batterie un peu légère mais il faut que je teste plus longtemps. J'ai acheté le modèle pour chat car j'ai équipé un chiot. Par rapport à un tracker Invoxia, je trouve que le Tractive Chat est un peu lourd.

Bulky but effective

Efficace e della giusta dimensione. La nostra gatta finalmente può andare in giro senza ansie. Il GPS è abbastanza preciso
