You guys!
MomFOD saw this and wanted to write about it, but I stepped in first. Cats, listen to me. This is imperative: the spies are coming.
World, meet Kittyo, a little gadget that allows your FODs to spy on you. No joke. This little doohickey was invented by a one Lee Miller. “… There’s got to be a way to allow cat parents to interact with their cats while they’re at work or on the road traveling,” he said. And thus, Kittyo was born. Using a smart phone, your FOD can view you through the embedded webcam and even speak to you and call you over. And then, no joke, they can RECORD VIDEOS AND TAKE PHOTOS OF YOU WHILE YOU PLAY. It’s like a whole new Internet trend waiting to happen. I can see it now: Photos and videos of me doing incriminating really cute things while I’m at home alone.
That’s not all! While away, a FOD can play laser bug with you! Holy cow! I thought that thing only came out when they were here, watching me, but now it will come out while they’re away and watching me, too! I’m going to have to seriously prepare for this.
I’m reading here that it can also dispense treats. Actually, that’s not bad. That’s kind of a perk. And yet, at what cost?
It’s finally happening, guys. The FODs are going to start watching us from afar. Your FODs. My FODs.
Some things they might catch me doing:
- sleeping
- playing with bottle caps
- find out who’s really taking bites out of the biscuits and muffins
- watch me whittling my stump
- pawing at the door at 5am, at which time they can probably draw my attention to the laser comfortably from the bed instead of throwing useless pillows at the door
This project is about to launch a Kickstarter campaign to help fund the release of the spying, laser-bug pointing, treat dispensing robo kitty cops. Any interested parties can sign up at Kittyo.com for updates to the project and to get an introductory discounted price. It seems that MomFOD has already signed up by entering her email address. Oh, apparently she entered MY email address. Of course she did.
What do you guys think? Are you prepared? What will your FODs catch you doing if they have one?
Love,
Crepes.
PS. MomFOD would like me to point out that if you do, in fact, have a special needs cat, this is a pretty awesome gadget so you can check in while you’re away and make sure they’re a-ok in between visits from your pet sitter. I guess I have to agree. Sign up if you’re even slightly interested. There’s no obligation and discounted prices are always fab.
***DISCLOSURE: We have been compensated by Kittyo for writing about the Kittyo product. HOWEVER, our opinions are absolutely, 100% our own. *** We also wouldn’t write about something we didn’t think was awesome, regardless of compensation, so there’s that.

Our mom thinks this Kittyo sounds awesome! She’s already signed up. We are not quite sure, we’ll probably have to start behaving when the humans are gone. Now we won’t be able to blame the dog for knocking her things over and she’ll be able to see when we gang up on the dog.
Tell your Mommy THANKS for signing up! I think it will be OK for you Ruby. Don’t forget, she can talk to you and give you treats while she’s gone!
That’s what I mean, guys!! They’re going to know. They’re going to see!!!!
That Kittyo is kinda interesting…but we’re not sure we want the mom to know everything we’re doing.
Humans. They just love to spy on anything they can. It does sound neat for a special needs pet or even to reassure the kitties mom and dad are alive when they’re gone for a while.
We’re not so sure we want Mom Paula to be able to see our every move when she’s not here.
oh great…now Mom is running over to their site…swell, really swell Crepes!! I hope that thing doesn’t get off the ground…na’mean???
Keep up the good work Crepes. We appreciate you watching out for all of us.
Finally. My friend can get confirmation that it’s his cat that’s ruining his credit score. Those truckloads of catnip treats that appear aren’t MAGICAL, dude. YOU’RE PAYING FOR THEM. We’ll finally have proof.
Theo you’re so right! Make sure to tell your friend to sign up at http://www.kittyo.com right away! This sounds urgent! =^^=
I think the humans will love it! Perhaps my post misfired? Instead of warning the kitties, I’ve alerted the humans!!!!!
Sounds like a great idea to us humans. Cats maybe not so much except for treats. It does sound neat.

crepes…..BAD eye dea for kittehz…GRATE eye dea for peepulz…. R mom iz lovin thiz….uz…..knot sew much sew 🙂
If it snitches on me, can I knock it down?
Nope sorry Yammies! Kittyo can clamp onto a shelf or be affixed to a wall so you can’t knock it over. But we think you’ll like it – don’t forget about the laser pointer and the treats. Plus with the speaker you can talk to your owners while they are away!
Best,
KITTYO
MOL! I’d probably ignore it! Me-Ommmmmm
