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.

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..

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.

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

Brilliant. I know where my cat is at all times. If the collar comes off then I can use the radar to find it. Minute to minute detail. Virtual fence is great. If he goes out of that zone, I get an alert on my phone. Only issue is battery life is short.

I have an outdoor/indoor cat so been trialing it for the past 4 months or so and I can’t see myself going back to not having it (that’s how they get you I guess). Despite not being 100% accurate in the location pin point, because of this tracker I was able to find out that my cat got stuck in someone else’s garden over the summer. My favourite added feature is the sound and light activation which makes it easier to spot my cat from a far in darker nights.

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%!!

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.

Die Tracker retten mir die Nerven. Ich war immer besorgt um meine zwei Katzen, und seit ich die tracker nutze, ist mein Leben wieder einfach. Mittlerweile hören meine Katzen sogar auf den Signalton und kommen dann direkt ins Haus. In seltenen Fällen blieb mal das gps signal aus, aber dann fand ich heraus, dass ich das Handy nur einmal in den Flugmodus und wieder zurück setzen muss. Da ich meine Katzen nur für ca 3 Stunden am Stück nach draußen lasse, habe ich auch nie Probleme mit der Akku Laufzeit. Dafür nutze ich auch nicht alle Funktionen, wie diese Gesundheitssachen. Insgesamt bin ich dank der Geräte doch recht sorgenfrei und gelassen geworden. Es ist ganz wahr, zu behaupten, dass sie mir allemal die Nerven retten.

I feel very cheated. I purchased the tractive cat collar on amazon. On the website, I made sure to check, it states "monthly subscription starting 4.50" and I did more research on it and saw some prices go up to 6-10 euros on average. I know 6 euros a month adds up, but it's only 6 euros a month and I can afford that just fine, but then I go to set the account up, all is fine and well, I wanted the 6 euro A MONTH for 5 years premium plan, and then it says "pay €360 😊" I don't have 360 euros on me to spend for a 5 year subscription?? If it was in monthly increments under some contract that 'after 2 months you cannot unsubscribe until contract is over or there will be a termination fee' yada yada, I'd be like "yeah, cool, makes sense". But 360 off the bat??? Everywhere I looked it said the GPS subscription was monthly. This is an absolute joke. I feel so horribly cheated. I now have, a collar that's useless, wasted money, and a horrible experience and feeling. This is blatant explotation of "pay small monthly fee" and then you get the product and expect people to go "oh.. well I already have the collar I spent an unfair amount of money on, and love my furry friend so I might as well.."
