We often wonder just how far and where our ridiculous cats go when they disappear for a day or 2?

What sort of camera is available, if any, that we can lash onto one of those goofy bastards??

It has to be much smaller than a go-pro, and store video.

My buddy has collars for his dogs (pit and boxer) with GPS tracking... :) BUT a camera WOULD be more fun...

That's too funny Tommy. Me and the wife have thrown that conversation around a few times. :D

Tommy they make mini spy cams that are about 3"x1" and are totally automatic and self contained - about $150...

The black cat could wear that, he doesn't give a shit about much.
But he tears collars off.

But he is also the least active most times.

"Fast Jack" might be too small, even though he is a killer.

"Jeggy" doesn't care about things like collars, but we think he has about 3 different homes and we might lose the camera to someone else.



Gonna pursue this, it will be interesting!

This is still shots, but the best video one only stores 2 minutes.

More likely to see them getting broiled fish from the shut in elderly lady next door.
Jack kills moles often, black cat likes to take on big things like squirrels.
Jeggy is like Tigger, just hops around wanting to play with the moles and deer.
I've watched jack sit a mole hole for an hour, then go straight up in the air and come down nose first and literally pull a mole straight out of the ground.
Be cool to get pics of that!
