Tractive GPS Pet Tracker | Locate Your Cat using GPS | Follow-up Review (2021)

Just a follow-up for my previous review of Tractive GPS Tracker. Last time it was maybe a bit too easy to find our cat but this time I was able to capture a bit more challenging journey of finding our cat! :D
The app is great and really gives us piece of mind when letting our cats to go outside by themselves!

[@kathieovereem2555]

Thank you. This was a great example of how useful the tracker can be.

[@stabbb1299]

Excellent review and beautiful cats. I was hesitating purchasing this device because I didn't think the map offered satalite view, but based on your phone I guess it does. Thanks for the help and good luck with NATO membership!

[@henrynordman]

Thanks for the comment !

[@user-tc4cz6ky1m]

Just found this today and wanted to find a comprehensive review. Thank you. I hope you are all doing well!

[@Rar9866]

have just orded one today my little fubuki just came home after been awat for two days (she does this when weather warm which we do get every so often in England) was worried about her hopefully can use this to track her down for next time

[@sandieweldon2808]

Thanks so much for the demonstration, I think we will buy it for our cat that is only happy outside but we live in a small apartment. We let him go and we lost him for 12 hours. We were so sad but thankfully he came back. Definitely need this tracker!

[@HdHd-hp6qz]

I have the same problem. However I don’t think they are getting lost. I think there is another person who is letting your cat into their home

[@easy2lose109]

I just bought mine today from amazon so excited. Thank you for the review and you cat is beautiful

[@henrynordman]

Thank you for your comment 🐱

[@jesusosuna1511]

How is it working for you?

[@AdamJee923]

Nice one Henry thank you for the video and such a beautiful wilderness for your kitty Mars to play in :) He must be in heaven.

[@henrynordman]

Yes, it's definitely their favorite place and we have many cats there, ours and my parent's :) It's Mars's 1st birthday today!

[@magnus00125]

Funny thing the cat we are trying to get a gps for is a white siamese flamepoint too. Cute and nice cats but very adventurous, and maybe a bit naïve. :D cutest things ever though

[@henrynordman]

So nice to hear that! Yes, the cats have so much energy and curiosity. Even with the GPS we will keep much eye on them, especially when they are still young and naive 😄

[@alexhrissis9787]

Great and helpful video, thank you

[@IlonaVerhagen]

thanks for your video. I bought it too as my mother cat has a litter somewhere outside and I don't know where. Mother cat comes home every evening, to eat. The tracker will arrive tomorrow and I hope to find her litter asap

[@henrynordman]

This will definitely help!

[@lynseymentier6870]

This is brilliant! I love it

[@watcher687]

İs it possible to get notified if the cat enters an area that we don't want him to?

[@henrynordman]

Should be doable to make "no-go zones"

[@susannalam5799]

thanks for sharing

[@henrynordman]

Happy to hear :)

[@TRACEROOTGPS]

Good information 👍

[@henrynordman]

Thanks!

[@kathychicorelli4596]

Beautiful flame point kitty you have are his eyes blue?

[@henrynordman]

Thanks 😺 yes, the eyes are blue

Please Like and subscribe. It's just to help the streamer who I nothing about. I just bought and haven't used yet

[@IEatLotzaPotatoes]

great vid

[@stevetkocz]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video I’m thinking of getting one for when we go away in the Motorhome, could you tell me if it works when there is no phone signal as we tend to wild camp in remote areas Many thanks Steve

[@henrynordman]

This one requires cellular network in order to send the GPS information to your phone. There are some other options like GoFindMe that do not need cellular network, although they are not specifically designed for pets.

Pretty Cats

[@henrynordman]

Thanks from Jaffa & Mars :D

[@raniaahmed6628]

Hi, Thank you so much for sharing. I have been using tractive for the past 5 months on my cat and it's been working great. The only issue is its size and weight which feels too cumbersome to be fitted to the cat's collar so I ended up clipping ti to a harness, which is causing skin problems and balding for my cat. She is almost 4.5 kg. I see that your cat wears hers on a collar do you think it's manageable that way? how heavy is your cat? thanks

[@HurtsEnd]

They have a mini version now, maybe it’s small enough for your kitty

[@marko-182]

Hi 🙂 do you know if is possible to activate device remotely? I want to use tractive only if I lost my dog and then activate 1 month subscription. Ofc battery on device charged. Tnx

[@henrynordman]

I believe that the battery won't last for that purpose.

[@andreamusatti]

do you think it works for small dog ?? thanks

[@henrynordman]

They have a dog version I think

[@lindywoods6256]

How do you install

[@samuelcramphorn3874]

was it easy for your cats to adjust to the weight on the collar? I'm waiting for mine to get delivered as my cat keeps walking off into peoples gardens at the moment :-D

[@henrynordman]

The cat started jumping around since it didnt know what the heck was stuck around its neck :D it was pretty hilarious looking. But they got used to it pretty quickly (young cats?).

[@samuelcramphorn3874]

@@henrynordman ahh, good. Yep, shes 1 year and 2 months :-)

[@Justjenn96]

How much do you pay for the subscription?

[@izazsatria6336]

Can you give us the link to buy this device/tracker?

[@henrynordman]

Where do you live? I bought it from a local electric appliance store.

[@izazsatria6336]

@@henrynordman in Indonesia, near Bali

[@henrynordman]

@@izazsatria6336 Not sure if they sell there. Because it needs to use local network for GPS. Maybe you can check their website?

[@DisneyUpBoilerUp]

@Henry Nordman do you have to pay a separate subscription for each cat?

[@henrynordman]

Yes, seperate subscriptions needed

[@bakersw0rld847]

How longs the battery last?

[@henrynordman]

I havent tested but it lasts very long

[@henrynordman]

I mean several days

[@archeofede9628]

I live close to a forest too and my cat is always exploring around, I am so worried when he stay out all over the night. I think I will buy Tractive as well… dont you think is a good idea?

[@henrynordman]

It's definitely a good idea! It will give you some peace of mind when the cat goes outdoors. Ours are still kittens so we only let them out during the day and check them periodically.

[@archeofede9628]

@@henrynordman exactly the same, I have 3 cats 1 year old and I am always worried about their safety… I’m just scared that this GPS collar is too big for them and they could be stacked somewhere in some very dangerous situation

[@henrynordman]

@@archeofede9628 The collar has a mechanism which opens if it gets stuck somewhere. I think the design is quite clever in that sense. Although, few times it has fallen off the cat so I just ended up locating the collar.

[@bartsimpson897]

😻Is you cat a flame point Siamese I have a Flame point Siamese Cat😻

[@henrynordman]

He's a flamepoint but not pure Siamese 😺

[@aa_f5m267]

What is the app name?

[@henrynordman]

Tractive

[@denismarina6812]

is it 100% water and snow resistant? the dog stays outside all day

[@henrynordman]

Yes, it's fully waterproof!

[@XxTheAlDavisxX]

how many times do you charge it a week? and that's assuming you fully charge it?

[@henrynordman]

We only use it when we go to the countryside and when letting the cats go ouside. So it will last for long time. But I would guess once per week if you use it continuously.

[@chriskelvin248]

Didn’t have to even check, accent = SF!!!

[@henrynordman]

Hehe, kiitos

[@davidgaul572]

Tractives are crap! Don't waste your money! Customer service also is crap!

[@henrynordman]

Sorry to hear! I'm personally happy with the product but havent been in touch with their customer service.

[@Knueppel_Kadse]

...lets go back... WTF.-.. leave your cat alone...
