Wouldn't your job be so much cooler if you could have your cats with you? Planning a day trip, but sick of paying puppy sitters? Petzi Treat Cam understands. Petzi Treat Cam is there for you.
PetziConnect is the brainchild of Simon Milner and Dave Clark, Silicon Valley veterans and animal lovers. "One night while out to dinner chatting and sharing pictures from their smartphones they inevitably came across pictures of their pets," the company's Indiegogo page reads. "Next thing they knew everyone wanted to see, even total strangers. Simon turned to Dave and said, 'Ya know, why can't we introduce our pets live and in real time with our smartphones?'"
"It's fun to look at the video stream, especially with the night vision in the dark," Lello said. "The video quality is good, and so are the photos you can capture. My one complaint is with the app. Why is the home page the social media stuff and not the stream?"
Once we find a good spot to anchor the camera, we plan to use it a lot more, but having the camera on the floor is just an invitation for the cats to Godzilla-smash Petzi in an attempt to liberate the incarcerated treats.
[UPDATE: Day three of life with Petzi and the cats have learned that if they mess with Petzi, they spend a day sans treats. We're impressed by their restraint!]
We're big fans of the Petzi treat cam, and it's no wonder the campaign surpassed its original goal by 265 percent by September 2015. Not everyone has $169-$199 to spend on a camera to spy on your cats, and Santa only comes once a year (that's a long time to wait for a Petzi), but if you love your animals, you pretty much need this. Instead of just showing photos of your pets to strangers (like you know we all do), you can actually interact with them... so they don't get lonely.
