Tracking Device

I have a cat that perpetually likes to hide & go into seclusion. I don't
like that. Two other cats we have never do that, and don't bully the 3rd
one, and we'd rather then 3rd one be "out & about" to socialize with the
others rather than hiding all the time.

Sometimes she hides so strongly, you can't find her no matter what you do.
So I am wondering if they make a device--something you can hang around their
collar say--that can track them, something where you could push a remote
control or something and it could find them.

Tips?

LRH alert. Don't feed the troll.

OK, so I'll have to call PetSmart. No biggie.

Sometimes when a cat is hiding it just wants some undisturbed sleep for
a while.

When mine does that, I leave her alone... I suggest you do the same with
yours.

Let the cat live its life instead of bossing it around all the time.

It isn't a bad idea I suppose, a "lo jack" for pets. You could track
down a lost animal a lot easier.
How hard would it be to make those microchips with this capability?

It can sleep anywhere it wants, it doesn't NEED to hide where others can't
see it. I don't like it hiding, ever, for any reason, not even for that.
It's not a sleeping thing so much as it is that she becomes anti-social, and
that's a no-no in my house.

Thanks to the guy for the link by the way. I did already plug in one place I
knew she liked to hide, so that's part of the plan also--plugging & blocking
all the hiding places so it's not possible for her to hide.

Thank you very much for the link, I appreciate it.

Are you afraid of your cat Larry? Is he going to attack you when you
aren't looking?

You are one strange dude.
