Kitty Call by Meow Mix Allows Owners to Play With Their Cats from Work
Jonathon Brown — February 2, 2013 — Tech
With Kitty Call, you never have to feel guilty about leaving your pet at home while you go to work again.
It's no secret that many people with pets feel incredibly close to them. Often people without children view their cats or dogs with the same level of affection as they would a child. This means walking out the door and leaving your pet alone all day can cause anxiety for some pet owners.
Meow Mix aims to alleviate such anxiety with Kitty Call. Kitty Call is triggered by a cat toy placed on your computer screen. When activated, it wakes up the computer and calls your phone and before you know it you're video chatting with your pet. Even better, you can move the ball on the cat toy by moving your phone. All of the footage can be recorded on your phone and uploaded to Facebook.
