Some pets put up with wearing a tracker 3 times as owners experimented with cat wearing bells and glow-collar.
Our results show that the 'beat' the cats followed was not affected by the glow-collar or bell, but that there did seem to be fewer birds caught.
We would like more owners to pop a glow collar on their pet - and record how many mice and rats are caught. We do hope that the cats catch fewer birds but keep the rodents down. But we need data going into iNaturalist! All records are welcome here
We have put our resources online, and you can learn about GPS tracking, satellites and even how to make a Glow Collar here.
