We know the last post was tongue in cheeky. But this one is serious. Or, seriously curious.
Pet tech is full of innovations that make life better for dogs and cats in human homes.
3 Pet Tech Devices to Bark About
Here’s a few we’ve found while taking our fingers for their daily walk around the world wide web, after struggling to groom the dogs with a normal brush the other day.
All their fur ends up on you and we were certain some startup had a solution to this hairy problem.
Well! Talk about going down the tech rabbit hole.

Groom Plus, by Your Luxury Vacuum Cleaner
Dyson. It’s a name synonymous with clean carpets. It’s a startup that does consumer products differently. Its vacuum cleaners look different.
They work differently. Cordless, some of them. They’re very strong but very quiet. Your dog may think it’s a new friend, not a household item.
Which is why your hairy fairy might not mind being groomed by one?!
So it seems. It slurps the hairs into itself quietly while you tackle salon-style dog grooming at home. What’s more, Dyson cleaners suck up allergens. So no groom-time sneezes.
Dysons are available from Hirches. Love accessories that turn a singular machine into a multi-tasker!
Canine Fitness Tracker (Waterproof!)
A disproportionate amount of pet dogs are obese dogs. Which means they’re way over their ideal body weight in terms of health and fitness. This can make life extremely uncomfortable for them, and directly endanger their health now and into the future. This device is not having it, however. It allows you to stay up to date with your dog’s mass and exercise or activity. It offers badges and challenges to help motivate you and is top in the UK. Wonder if its one-year-battery life has anything to do with it?

Kitty’s Home Territory, Secured.
Is mittens micro-chipped? Sure. Do other cats want to come inside and “play”? Always.
Cat flaps are great at keeping drafts out, but not other cats. Those magnet thingies on the collar definitely don’t work – tried it, what a waste of cash and time. But this. This chip off the old (school) block is much better. Much smarter.
The SureFlap for cats is a cat door that works with – you guessed it – your kitty’s sub-dermal microchip. No collar required!
That’s enough to keep your Christmas list busy for a bit, no?
Till next time!
