Cat 6 mini - false tracking data (???)

The new cat 6 mini has atrocious GPS. When it doesnt get GPS connection (which is most of the time tbh) - live tracking will just keep stationary at the last sent location without actually updating the GPS. So considering that, your tracker might as well be 10 minutes of cat walking away from your p

The new Cat 6 mini

I don’t have experience with the 6 mini, only the regular mini. But I would imagine the battery life to be worse in the 6 mini, seeing how small it is. My regular minis lasts maybe 3 days at max with one battery saving zone and no live tracking. The collars Tractive sent with the regulars also rub m

Has anyone tried Pet Tracer?

It's been 9 months since your post and I'm wondering if you are happy with pet tracer for your cat. I just bought the tractive cat 6 mini and I'm not terribly pleased, but also don't want to deal with the hassle of returning it if pet tracer isn't actually much better 😅

Pre-ordered CAT 6 Mini: July 1st Shipping day is here! Public accountability thread.

1 star Preordered, promised shipping by July 1st, still nothing. Should I do a charge back? Preordered the CAT 6 Mini expecting it to ship by July 1st like Tractive promised.

CAT mini 6 - Yikes

It is a bit strange. The thing is, I've built my own network based on small Tile trackers and custom built hot spots that are placed around the property and indoors. They have around 3 years of battery life but it's not GPS. If the cats leave the property I don't know where they are. So my wife want

Should I replace my cat mini with the cat 6 mini?

I purchased 3 of the cat 6 mini back in April and still haven’t received them. First they were back ordered to May, then June and now it’s been updated to July. I like my current tractive collars, but this delay is giving me a bad taste for tractive.

PawFit Lite gps tracker?

I’m trying the new tractive cat 6 miniright now and it works most of the time but everyone is in agreement that it is a bit of a downgrade from the previous model but it is lighter and slimmer. Our boy has gotten used to it quite quickly from no collar at all and we worked our way up with AirTags li

Why are they selling products they don't have?

It’s worth noting that the supply issues are only in certain markets, at least to the best of my knowledge. I think all trackers are (and have been) shipping within the EU. On the supply issues, I have a little more compassion than the average person, as my job has overlap with shipping/receiving/lo

Pre-ordered CAT 6 Mini: July 1st Shipping day is here! Public accountability thread.

We've had the cat 6 mini for a couple of weeks now and top be honest you're better of with the old one anyways. The new one fits better - yes. But it's GPS seems so atrocious that it just doesn't automatically update the location half the time for and hour or more and the Live tracking does not work

Second collar that is lost now in the space of 1 month ….

Rogz makes the cat collars that Tractive uses. And OP has the new Cat 6 mini, where the tracker is integrated into a collar. so you can’t switch it out for your choice, only the compatible collar pieces that Tractive sells. The redesign of the collar clasp that comes with the Cat 6 mini does not see
