Everything as usual.
Your cat knows her territory and usually comes back on time.

petTracer is a GPS + radio search system for outdoor cats. GPS shows the search area, radio helps you find them — even inside garages, cellars, sheds, or where the signal is weak.




She knows her territory, her regular paths and her routines. Most of the time there's no reason to worry. But then comes the evening she isn't waiting at the door.




Both start with a missing cat. Only one gives you a way to keep searching.
The app shows a GPS position near the main road.
You walk to the main road.
The app says: "last seen nearby – 1 hr ago."
You call her name. Nothing.
You still don't know if she's in a garden, a shed or a garage.
You go home. You don't sleep.
You walk home exhausted, can't sleep, and wonder where your cat is.
The app shows a GPS position near the main road.
You switch to radio close-range finding.
The radio signal gets stronger as you walk.
The radio signal gets stronger near house number 14.
The app points to the garage at house number 14.
The neighbour opens the garage.
Quiet and scared. Now she's safe.
Both live in one system: in the collar and in the HomeStation (finder & charging station).


The shock hits exactly when it matters most: unlike radio signals, GPS signals can't get through concrete walls. And that's exactly where missing cats often end up: in sheds, garages, or unfamiliar, empty buildings.
petTracer combines both and gives you, with GPS and radio finding, the best possible chance of finding your cat in time in an emergency.


GPS shows the search area. Radio helps you find your way to your cat. petTracer combines both into one cat rescue system.

Bella had been gone since the morning. No GPS signal — just the last known zone. Classic case: dense housing, lots of basements.
We walked the street with our phone until the radio close-range finding got stronger. She was sitting in the cellar compartment of an apartment building, where someone had left the door open.

All questions & answersThe petTracer collar doesn't emit any cellular radiation. Instead it uses a radio signal, similar to a baby monitor, with radiation levels around 100 times lower than a cellular signal. petTracer was designed from the ground up to put your cat's safety and wellbeing first.
