I'm looking forward to an affordable cat collar for this (not a collar that costs as much as the device itself!). I'm feeding some strays in my porch (and yes I've just managed to spay both of them) - it'd be interesting to see where they roam. I've contemplated GPS trackers, but they're much too big for a cat and battery life is only 5-7 days if it sends hourly beacons. If it sends a beacon every 5 minutes, it'll only run for 1-2 days.
I'm guessing people will come up with all kinds of unique uses for these things that Apple never quite had in mind. As long as the cats roam somewhere in range of an iOS device this should work, plus they are waterproof and shockproof.
Nice to hear you hear you are looking after stray cats, as well as going to the trouble and expense of having them spayed.
