Tractive’s new dog and cat trackers provide more health insights for your pets

Cat 6 Mini has a sleeker, less boxy design (still thicker than a traditional collar), monitors resting heart rate and respiratory rate, and costs $79.

Dog 6 XL is designed for active canines over 55 pounds; it’s lighter, more durable, costs $89, and offers three times the battery life of the current model — up to four weeks between charges.

Dog 6 XL’s health monitoring can detect changes in scratching behavior that may indicate allergies, skin irritants, or added stress.

The Basic Plan includes unlimited live tracking, virtual fences, and escape alerts — $108 per year or $144 for two years.

The Premium Plan adds worldwide coverage, family sharing, 365 days of location history, and GPS data export — $120 per year, $168 for two years, or $300 for five years; the Tractive app shows cat territory, roaming patterns, and favorite resting spots.
