[Electronics-talk] Animal Locator

[Darla Rogers]

Thank you Annette:  Good point about getting wet.  Maybe the package might
give us some direction.
Many thanks,
Darla

Darla,

I found out a little more info about the "key finder".  It came with 3
pieces in the package.  Two beeping units, and one button unit with a button
for each of the beepers.  The beepers are slightly bigger than a quarter.
They use one of those flat coin batteries.  The button unit uses 1 or 2
triple A batteries.  I do not know if the batteries came with it or not.
I'm under the impression that they do.  The only thing you might need to be
concerned with is how the beeper unit will hold up to getting wet when the
cat drinks or if it likes to play with the water coming out of the Faucet.

HTH,
Annette

Thanks, Annette; I'll be with my friend anyway doing other errands, so it is
not out of the way, but it sounds like it might be smaller than the luggage
locators I have seen, and I haven't seen all that many key locators.
Many thanks,
Darla

Why don't you call your local CVS and ask if they have the product in stock
before you head to the store?  It is in the "As Seen on TV" section of the
store.  It comes in a box.  It might be called "Key Finder".

Wow, Annette; thank you.  I'll be out with a friend tomorrow, and the CVS is
only a few blocks from here, but they haven't plowed, and I need to avoid
falling on my keester because I have a compression fracture that is still
healing.
Many many Thanks,
Darla

Someone I know just recently bought a small little device from the CVS
Pharmacy that might be what you are looking for.  I do not know the name of
it.  It is made up of 2 parts.  One piece has a button on it that you would
press when you want to find the cat.  The other piece could be clipped to
the cat's collar and would beep when you press the button on the first
piece.  

The person I know who has this uses it to find his robotic vacuum when it
gets stuck somewhere and cannot return to its charging station.

HTH,
Annette

                Please forgive me if this isn't germane to this list.  I'm
looking for a small locator with a transmitter, so I know where the cat is
before someone goes outside.  His breed is a very docile one, so I worry
about stray cats or someone stealing him.

With Gratitude,

Darla
