Lost Feline Locator: Brilliant or Baffling?

Kitties who enjoy impromptu games of hide-and-seek — when you're it — should be warned.

Kitties who enjoy impromptu games of hide-and-seek — when you're it — should be warned. Their feline antics will be foiled if this invention makes it into your home! A combination of a credit card sized handset and signal transmitting tags, the Lost Feline Locator's remote has eight LEDs that light up in succession to guide you in the direction of your cat, even through walls and doors!

While the $100 product comes with two homing tags (with additional tags costing $50 a pop), it's possible to just search for one cat at a time, too. The one disadvantage I can see is that the beeping tone gets louder as you get closer, which could scare the feline further away, but all and all it would work well in a home with many nooks and crannies for all personality types and sneaky kitties.

Which Personality Does Your Cat Have?

We've had several recent tales at Sugar HQ of beloved kitties gone missing.

We've had several recent tales at Sugar HQ of beloved kitties gone missing. Sad. When checking at area shelters, one staffer got a handout with "search strategies" that she was kind enough to share. It lists four types of cats . . . and four different ways to seek them, if they should go missing. Since I'm hoping your pets are still safe at home, check out these descriptions to see which fits Fluffy best.

  • Curious clown. This cat loves exploring anything and anyone . . . and wants to be on the move to investigate.
  • Care-less kitty. These felines are a touch aloof, but observing nonetheless. They may not react to company – positively or negatively – but wander short distances nearby.
  • Cautious cat. Stable yet sometimes shy, they may hide in fear but generally can be coaxed out for meet and greets.
  • Xenophobic feline. Disliking all things out of the ordinary, these kits may never even come out to greet your friends, instead seeking shelter in a quiet room to stay alone.

Has Your Pet Ever Gotten Lost?

Although my dad likes to jokingly say, "if anyone took North, they'd bring him back," based on my hyper pooch's antics, I can't imagine what I would do if my beloved pet got away from me.

Although my dad likes to jokingly say, "if anyone took North, they'd bring him back," based on my hyper pooch's antics, I can't imagine what I would do if my beloved pet got away from me. It makes me sad when I see signs like this in windows or on street posts, and I always wonder if the furry family ever makes it home again? Have you ever lost a pet . . . and did you ever get it back?
