Smart flaps, fountains and cameras for cats.

Smart gear for cats — microchip cat flaps, water fountains, treat cameras and trackers. We compare practical features with honest notes on subscriptions.

Buying guide

A microchip cat flap keeps neighbouring cats out and can set a curfew. Water fountains encourage drinking. GPS cat trackers are lighter than dog models but still need a subscription — check weight before buying for a cat.

Cat technology FAQs

Do microchip cat flaps work with all chips?

Most learn and store your cat's microchip number. Some older or unusual chips may need checking — confirm compatibility before buying.

Can I put a dog GPS tracker on a cat?

Many dog trackers are too heavy for cats. Look for a lightweight tracker specifically described as suitable for cats, and check the weight against your cat's size.
