<p>This mini digital camera, rechargeable via USB, easily attaches to your pet&#8217;s collar and will then allow you to see what your furry little friend is up to when you&#8217;re not around.</p>
<p><span id="more-3496"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>
Just clip the lightweight digital camera to your pet&#8217;s collar and you&#8217;ll be able to take up to 40 photos to document their shenanigans. The camera has an auto interval mode that can be set to snap pictures at 1, 5 or 15 minute intervals. At 640 x 480 resolution the quality isn&#8217;t too shabby either.</p>
<p>All that&#8217;s left for you to do is hook up the camera to your PC or Mac and check out what sort of mischief Rover and Tiddles have been getting up to in your absence. Small and light enough for most cats and dogs.
</p></blockquote>

<p>If you for some reason aren&#8217;t able to have a real cat, but still want be able to relax to their purring sound, the <a href="http://www.uberreview.com/2007/08/touch-activated-robot-cat.htm">Purring Cat</a> ($10) might be just the ticket.</p>
<p><span id="more-431"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>This plush, touch-activated pet purrs when his back is rubbed and meows when it&#8217;s head is scratched, while his stomach moves up and down like the breathing of a cat. Requires 3 &#8220;AA&#8221; batteries for motion and sound (not incl.). 12 1/2&#8243;W x 4 1/2&#8243;H x 9 1/2&#8243;D.</p></blockquote>
<p>You can listen to a sound sample on the product page. Judging from the two cats next to me, the sound isn&#8217;t that authentic. There was no reaction at all from either of them.</p>

<p>The <a href="http://www.komfortpets.com/">Komfort Pets Carrier</a> ($399) is the world&#8217;s first climate-controlled pet carrier, designed to automatically keep pets cool when it&#8217;s too hot and keep them warm when it&#8217;s too cold.</p>
<p><span id="more-294"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>The Komfort Pets Carrier can be taken or used almost anywhere. It can be used in cars, SUVs, RVs, rental cars, boats, private planes, or in your home or garage to provide a comfortable cooled or heated sanctuary for cats, dogs, rabbits, or just about any other household pet. The Komfort Pets Carrier is powered by utilizing a 110-volt electrical outlet with a 12-volt DC converter or by the 12-volt power outlet in a car, SUV, RV, private plane or boat. (<a href="http://www.komfortpets.com/pages/about#ptLighter">Read more</a>.) All cords and adapters are included with every Komfort Pets Carrier.</p>
<p><strong>Features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Cutting-edge technology provides a patent-pending temperature control system that uses both conduction and convection simultaneously.</li>
<li id="srcDesign">Our ingenious design takes advantage of the natural methods by which a pet regulates its own body temperature. (<a href="http://www.komfortpets.com/pages/about#ptDesign">Read more</a>.)</li>
<li>The carrier is automatically programmed to heat or cool your pet as needed. You simply need to turn on the power, and the carrier will automatically sense the ambient temperature and activate either the combination cooling or heating mode as programmed in the predetermined veterinarian-recommended set points.</li>
<li id="srcLCD">A sophisticated LCD control panel displays information in a user-friendly way. (<a href="http://www.komfortpets.com/pages/about#ptLCD">Read more</a>.)</li>
<li id="srcHandle">A unique folding handle allows the carrier to be maximally portable. The handle may also be used as a holding/safety mechanism to restrain the carrier in a vehicle via seatbelt. (<a href="http://www.komfortpets.com/pages/about#ptHandle">Read more</a>.)</li>
<li id="srcSafety">Safety features (multiple overload protections and an &#8220;overtemperature&#8221; indicator light) are included for your peace of mind. (<a href="http://www.komfortpets.com/pages/about#ptSafety">Read more</a>.)</li>
<li id="srcQuality">Two style lines are available. Our Classic Series has the finish of a traditional pet carrier. Our Designer Series has a unique exterior look fashioned from design technology and finishes used in the automotive industry. Distinctive colored high-gloss and metallic finishes, along with wood grain and simulated leather finishes, are available. (<a href="http://www.komfortpets.com/pages/about#ptQuality">Read more</a>.)</li>
<li>Exotic and unique customized finishes (including camouflage) are available upon request.</li>
<li id="srcStackable">Both our Classic and Designer style lines are available with two distinctive tops. We offer a contoured top as well as an interlocking non-slip stackable flat top, which is perfect for the show dog circuit. (<a href="http://www.komfortpets.com/pages/about#ptStackable">Read more</a>.) You may purchase either the stackable flat top, the contoured top, or purchase both for use interchangeably. When you place your order you will have the option of choosing which top(s) you prefer.</li>
<li>Custom manufactured versions of the <b>Komfort Pets Carrier</b> can be used in police and military applications, and are ideal for use by animal control officers. They are also a perfect accessory for limousine and executive car providers to offer their patrons.</li>
</ul>
