Technology and innovation is advancing to the point that you can have a cat without ever lifting a finger to care for her. I say, then what’s the point of having a cat? The only alternative care apparatus I haven’t seen is a mechanical petting machine. However, there are items you can place here and there for your cat to rub against for comfort and the petting sensation.
For better or worse here’s a list with descriptions of what are touted to be 16 of the BEST cat products. They include self-cleaning litter boxes—yeah that would be handy—toys that help your cat get more exercise—that would be beneficial. But you can now also purchase a device to track a wandering cat, webcams for keeping an eye on her, numerous styles, shapes, and sizes of cat beds, shelters, hammocks, houses, but here’s something new to me:
Ever heard of a phone app that helps you to communicate with your cat? You speak into it and the device alters your words into cat-speak. Yes, cat language—sounds the cat may or may not understand. Yeah, they’re only half serious about this, calling it a game of sorts. I also saw an automatic feeder that you can activate from a distance by phone.
Here’s the site featuring these and more items. Enjoy!
