wifi baby monitors for cats

Hi,

i am getting an rv and want to remotely monitor my 2 cats that we will be leaving in rv periodically.

I've determined that baby monitors with temperature that are wifi is my best option. anybody doing this and what would you recommend.

i will be using a verizon mifi device if i can find monitor that will work on it.

thanks

    If your neighbours dog barks, then set the radio to transmit, hide it near his house somewhere, and record the dog on your computer. Then you have the evidence.

    I use mine for yard work while I have timers for cooking inside on the oven. When the timer beeps, I pick it up on the other radio when I am out in the garden.


    combining your barking hearing system with a simple temperature alarm seems like the way to go. I'm glad i made the initial post-this is a good idea

  • this is a sound/temperature baby monitor-that is not wifi-REPEAT NOT WIFI angelcare ac420

    but in independent testing has a 3000 open field range. it is only 60 dollars

    i think great as a temperature monitor my cats don't bark-yet

    linky one



    this independent site got this as 3300 feet open field angelcare ac420

  • I'm anxious to see the answers here. GOOD idea IMHO. Maybe dog owners will pick up on it so they can hear their dogs barking!
