Apple AirTags or any other tracking device for my void?
I got my boy at 10 months and his previous owner told me he was terrified of being outside, which was obvious immediately. I’ve had him almost 3 months now and he’s gotten super comfortable. Every time we take our Dutch Shepherd on walks he tries following us out so we slowly started introducing him to being outside without a harness because he always stayed close to us. That worked fine until last week when he saw a stray cat and took off after it. The crazy part is the stray was also a black cat. Anywho, we lost him for like 30 minutes because it was dark and our apartment complex has a ton of trees and bushes so we tried a harness after that and he spent the whole time trying to get out of it. We live in a gated community and he usually stays close to our apartment entrance because he’s still nervous outside but I definitely want some kind of tracking device now just in case he chases something again.
Do you guys recommend AirTags for cats or is there something better you use?
UPDATE: I obviously can’t reply to every comment but I did want to mention that my spouse and I talked about it and we’re going to look into different harness options that may be more comfortable for him, along with getting some recommendations from our vet.
In the meantime, I’ll still be purchasing either an AirTag or a Tractive tracker since I’ve seen a lot of success stories mentioned in the comments. I appreciate all the feedback!
