Editor's note

Two fundamentally different approaches. The AirTag is Bluetooth + Find My — no subscription, ~1-year battery, ~11g featherweight — but it has no live GPS or geofencing, so it suits indoor or near-home loss prevention. Tractive is true GPS: it tracks an escaped outdoor cat and sends geofence alerts, at the cost of a subscription and charging every few days. AirTag for indoor cats with zero fees; Tractive for real-time tracking of cats that roam.
