How my 90-year-old grandad stopped worrying about our cat 😻

When Allison’s 90-year-old grandad went on holiday, she used the time to try something he’d always been a bit hesitant about: putting a collar on their outdoor cat, Covey.

This story shows just how much peace of mind petTracer can bring — not just for cat owners, but for entire families. When Allison’s 90-year-old grandad went on holiday, she used the time to try something he’d always been a bit hesitant about: putting a collar on their outdoor cat, Covey. He was worried it might bother him. But by the time he returned, to his surprise, Covey was happily wearing the petTracer — and, more importantly, he was safe. 😊




"I live with my 90-year-old grandad and he was worried about our outdoor cat Covey getting injured or locked in a shed. 

I tried a few different trackers but they were all subpar in their tracking ability, most evidently when Covey would come home without the collar and I wouldn't be able to retrieve it. 

After losing multiple collars I had almost given up, but after one final internet search I discovered petTracer. 

It was very important to me that a cat tracker collar be lightweight, have a breakaway clasp, and be reflective; petTracer meets these criteria and beyond. 

The search is over, and my grandad and I are grateful to petTracer for giving us peace of mind when it comes to our cat's safety. Every cat owner should know about this cool piece of technology!

Covey has been wearing petTracer for over 2 months now and it has never once come off. That’s thanks to how well-fitted it is — especially with the extra inlay band, which makes it virtually impossible for the collar to slip past his jaw or for him to get a paw underneath.”


It’s amazing what a little peace of mind can do — for you, your cat, and even your 90-year-old grandad.

petTracer isn’t just another tracker. It’s smart, lightweight, and designed for real-world cat behaviour — indoors and out.

If you know someone who’s always worrying about their cat, forward this story. You might just make their life a little easier.

With love,

    Trusting a semi-feral cat isn’t easy. Until now.
    This is the kind of story that reminds us why we made petTracer. Martha is semi-feral. She was dumped near a busy road as a kitten and survived on her own for the first six months — until Robin found her and gave her a home “She’s a lovely cat, but that feral imprint is still there. Last summer, Martha disappeared for five weeks. We had no idea where she was. We were heartbroken, thinking we’d lost her — but then one day, she just reappeared. After that, we put a petTracer collar on her so we could track her. Now we know exactly what her territory is. So when she moved out again this summer to a field just 300 yards from the house, we were happy to let her have her freedom, because we could follow her movements and go spend time with her. And just recently, after eight weeks away, she wandered back in again — and has been back every day since. She’s living her best life, knowing she can come back home whenever she wants. And we no longer have to worry about where she is — thanks to the collar.” Martha’s story shows what’s possible — and the kind of bond a cat can have with their owner. petTracer isn’t just a tracker. It’s a tool that helps people stay connected to their cats — even when they choose freedom over fences. If your cat roams, disappears, or just follows their own rules… petTracer helps you stop worrying, without holding them back. With love,The petTracer Team 😻

    Floofs and Blaxy
    This story shows just how much of a difference petTracer can make — especially when a cat is trapped somewhere GPS alone can’t reach. Thankfully, this one has a happy ending. 😊 Floofs & Blaxy 🐾 Shortly after moving into a new flat, Floofs and her brother Blaxy escaped. Blaxy returned after two days (clever boy!), but Floofs didn’t.She was missing for seven long weeks. Then came a call I’ll never forget — someone had found her collapsed outside their home. She was only 4 years old and so weak the vet advised putting her down. But I couldn’t give up on her. Floofs had likely been trapped somewhere for days, starving. Her body had started breaking down its own muscles just to survive. It was a miracle she made it — but after weeks of vet care, medication, and love, she slowly came back to life. She’ll be 10 this May. 💛 I never want her (or me) to go through that again. That’s why I got a GPS collar. The first one I tried was too bulky — Floofs hated it. But with petTracer, there’s no fuss. She wears it comfortably — and I know I’ll have a real chance of finding her if she ever disappears again. The radio signal even works when GPS can’t — like if she’s trapped indoors again. Peace of mind is everything. 🙏
