- I GPS Tracked My Cats For 24 Hours. After recently letting Ralph & Tom outside for the first ever time, Ralph went missing overnight. I bought a GPS Tracking Device to find out where he went!

FAQs:
- Both cats are neutered, vaccinated and microchipped
- I’d love to put a camera on Ralph but that would be invasive of my neighbour’s privacy
- The collar is by a brand called Weenect. It was a bit temperamental, and we lost the first one (it had a faulty battery so we couldn't track it to find it), but the company were great a sent a replacement for free. Not sure I'd recommend it nonetheless. Definitely do your research and read all the reviews before choosing a GPS collar yourself
- The plan is to never let them out at night - it’s just once every week or two that Ralph doesn't come home. The catflap doesn’t have a setting where you can let cats in but not out again
- The collars are quick-release so they can’t hurt themselves. Ralph loses his collar A LOT. The collars also have bells to make it harder for them to catch wildlife.
The previous video “Kitten's First Time Outside” explain in a lot more detail!

Responsible!
Thank you for the wonderful videos. I personally respect the decision to let your cats out. Although it can be bad for wildlife, especially birds, I respect that you have taken measures against that. Cats have driven many species of birds extinct. I hope you cats stay safe, the outside world has cars. Good day to you
"Know before you go!" Applies to kitty cats as well :-)
Oh, and one more thing... You can buy cat doors that you can leave open both ways, lock both ways, or lock one way but open the other way, in or out.
I think it's really dangerous for cats to be let outside. Outdoor cats only live half as long as indoor cats, usually meeting sudden and tragic deaths.
My bf: why were you up so late last night?
Me: I was watching a British dude track his cats.
My bf: ...
Aerialist Olive 😆😆😆😆😆😆
the correct answer is "wow honey thats cool, you need to show me that" lol
its true i was the cat
Bf= British friend
Aerialist Olive yeapppp
Have a feeling your cat is actually a catnip dealer.
Bradknightable is catnip drugs for cats?
R4iz _! No, it’s just a sent that cats LOVE.
R4iz _! It’s catcaine
Son Goku oh my lord xD
THATS WHY HE GOES THROUGH ALL THOSE GARDENS , HE HAS A STASH OF CATNIPTHAT HE PLANTS AND SELLSS
"The only real surprise was the sheer amount of time he seemed to spend sleeping"
...I did not need to feel called out like that.
How did I read this comment and hear the same thing on the video at the same time.
☀️ to 🍂.
quick salute for half-asleep chris who screamed for his cat to come home in a megaphone
Yep. That just shows how devoted to his love for his cat he is.
I can Feel the embarrassment when he screamed that
@@rainbowswirl4833 it worth it 😺
his neighbors were probably like "huh?"
Meow Ralph if you can here this please come home is a good song
I was so captivated by Ralph's adventure I burnt my dinner.
Rip
darn
Oof

Bless you. Watching this, I thought I was going bonkers and that I was somehow getting smellovision . It was early morning here when I first watched it and seeing the cat eating meat there was a meaty smell wafted into my bedroom at EXACTLY the same time. My husband never has breakfast and my dogs have dry food so there’s no gross smell... then I found out my eldest son at home was up before noon on a weekend and having something strange to eat, maybe a chip shop steak pie 🥧. My hubster and son have had a good chuckle at me smelling ‘cat food’ but it says a lot for whatever my lad was eating! 🐈
When a cats social life is more interesting than yours
Lmao seriously. All I do is work,eat, sleep, and Repeat 😭😭

"Tom is feeling so alone" sounds so sad now because now it's Ralph that's alone.... when he's not with Ginger or his favourite human.
Safe travels Tom, in the eternal afterworld. 😢
I've never met him
Oh Tom died!???
Wait did he??😭
A moment of silence for Tom.
how did he die?
Ralph clearly has a night security job in the neighborhood.
he arrests trespassing rats
Clearly he does
That is better than the first one I saw :|
Lol deff yes
🤣🤣
Imagine him approaching the owner of Ralph’s favorite bungalow and saying “Hey my cat really loves your garden, can I check it out too?”
I totally thought he would say he did that after all LOL I would be dead curious
Send out a drone and scout the area. :)
Lol he should do it. Not sure i would be able to resist approaching them and seeing what the cat is so drawn to
Imagine the owner of the bungalow coming up and say “ my cat “alph” really loves your garden, can i see it?”
Google maps!
Fly high Tom and regie you’ll always be remembered
We will always miss them❤❤
❤goodbye you wont be forgotton❤🕊
"RALPH IF YOU CAN HEAR ME PLEASE COME HOME!" on the megaphone was funny
He has a wife and kids. He’s living a double life.
🤣
Lol
Not possible with the kids part since he is neutered but the wife is possible lol
@@azariaasleep7621 Adopted...
Uhhmm idk
Ugh. Cats leaving and not returning is my kryptonite. Glad he came back!
Why do people let cats out without a leash wtf
@@lantaivo i agree its like letting a rabbid dog out in a yard with no fence its damgrous for others but for the cat as well becouse there increased chances of getting worms or any other deisiese infact thats a deisiese that if your cat contracts it your in danger and this is often found in any soils so next time you see a cat walking the streats with a gingleing color know that they probably have the potential for 5 diffrent worms 2 illnessses a respiratory infection and hidden wounds that have abscessed and become infected from unwillingness to be treated by the owners becouse they thinknthere cute wibble babber kitter dosent go fight AAANNNY THING
the artwoolf cats have been outside, unattended, for thousands of years. Many birds have gone extinct because of cats. Mostly, they can survive in the wild. That said, if you’re in a populated area with a lot of cars, etc, many people choose to leave cats indoors. But... that has its own issues. My cats are indoor cats. We have leashes. But they also want the freedom to explore alone, and may try to escape. One of my cats was killed this way. So while leashes might seem logical, cats are cats. And they’re gonna cat. Because they give no feks.
@@lantaivo they do it so that the cats can get enough air and excercise, and it is actually safe if you do not live in a big city. So its good for the cat
Did his first cat pass away? Mine recently passed away :(
What a fabulous video! You did an outstanding job explaining all of the sorted, tracking details. Love the sleeping in the flower bed x 6 hrs. Ralph is quite the Super Hero Explorer!!! Yes they both seem very happy GPS cats.
Now Tom has passed away and it’s so devastating :(
Only think of the good times. That is the whole point of pets. Good times.
😭

'WHAT WAS IN RALPHS FAV BUNGALOW?!'
He is part of O.W.C.A from Phineas and Ferb he leaves the collar there. Only entrance in the neighborhood.

Wow! Such a "party cat" Ralph is! Tom is clearly a home boy. Great cats you have!
I love how they sleep, holding paws!!
If I ever have kids I swear I'd be showing them this video. This is like top shelf kids content
but still a video a grown up can enoy whatching
@@calleknave8811 oh absolutely! I mean, I finished the whole thing myself and I'm a grown-ass adult lol... It just gives off those wholesome warm childhood flashback vibes:)

Yes! It's too bad that the kids in my family don't understand English yet, I would love to show it to them
Oh definitely. With the singing? Can see it on a kids show easily
My cats don't need GPS, they are on the couch 20 hours a day, asleep.
Lol same
My cats are on the bed 25 hours a day
@Jackfiddilydims food
Jackfiddilydims Treks to the food bowl or upstairs to one of the kid's beds to sleep some more. All jokes aside, my cats are way more active than that, especially at night, its just they are indoor cats. The average lifespan of an outdoor cat here in the US is not promising. 1.5 years, and it is always a sudden, painful, unnatural death/cause.
@@mdiddio you need to play with your cat every time before feeding
Chris! I love your video! I was just searching for a GPS collar review and saw your video and had to watch it. Ralph and Tom are adorable
7:09 that’s an elephant I don’t care what you tell me
It is NOT an elephant. But it is something else.
so true
Looks like a pig and a elephant
Omg yesss he's drawing
"I'm sure Ralph would eat him, given the chance, but behind bars, they're the best of friends."
Chris,

the guinea pig is only friends with him because he's lonely. they're like bunnies they need friends from their own breed.
Tom
No u
@@leporid257 Cats and guinea pigs aren't really the same breed..? I'm just going to assume you meant they're both animals
@@alexflosho ???
you need to get on google maps and see what's so darn interesting about that bungalow!!!
No idea. They have a greenhouse? As far as I'm away they don't have a cat, and the homeowners presumably sleep through the night and don't feed him. I wish I knew!
They may leave out cat flap at for hedgehogs.
@@HalfAsleepChris put a camera on him
If they have a greenhouse with mint plants inside, every cat in the neighbourhood would go there
Does Tom go as well do you know??
Catnip is a mint plant and other variants such as valerian root have a similar effect on them
If they leave out food for hedgehogs, it's usually cat food so he could be eating it
Bird feeders and squirrel feeders could provide hours of entertainment just watching them if he doesn't try to hunt
Enchanted Little Me maybe There’s lots of mice or birds there or they might be growing something like catnip in their green house and is trying to get to it. That’s what I’m thinking
I just love this story….interesting and hilarious…especially Ralp😂😂. Thank you for sharing in such an interesting and informative way. I ll definitely need a cat tracker as my cat loves to be outdoors for long hours
The GPS video was great. Almost 3M views compared to the rest. I think you were onto something here. My son and I would love to watch more of these types of adventure clips. It was really well done and entertaining.
"The only surprising thing was how much time he spent sleeping. I would love to be a cat." Same
Me 2
Not surprising. Cats spend up to 18 hours a day sleeping.
Lots of time spent self grooming too.
The amount of effort put into this video is astounding and impressive.
Yes,this is my favourite channel because of the detail. It has a simple yet nice look,in my opinion it’s better than 1 million subscribers quality.

I paused the video and read the newspaper article on the "Dark Fluffball"... omg, I died laughing. What a great quality video, you can see how hard you worked on it!
Ive been on Amazon prime looking for supplies for my future cat Dark, i love cats and this channel makes me so happy
Ralph likes to explore, he wants to see the world. For now your neighborhood will do

4:53 There is a Tapier next to the camera.

Thank you so much for this !
I only recently discovered your channel, and I'm enjoying it.
WRT Tom and the guinea pig, I'm not surprised. One flat I lived in, I had a mini yard. My neighbor, Pam, had a French lop rabbit. It was blast watching my Maine coon, Miz Brat, playing with the rabbit, Edward. Cat even tried hopping like Edward, and Pam and I laughed a lot.
Abt the cat going out, crawling under a bush, and sleeping, common. There are records of cats sleeping 10 to 18 hrs a day.
Did i just randomly watched a man stalking his cat all day long 😂
Watch*
I'm afraid to say I was lured into this same stalking video too!
Peanut SAS that is what I was going to say
I love it
Yez
I love it!!!! Ralph the night owl 🤩🤩 he’d be having a ball!!!
I love the amount of effort he puts in these videos. Also there is a hidden Tapir behind the motion sensor camera at 4:53
I thought it was a toy badger
Plot twist tom left the collar in the flowers while he went on his real adventure

How about that Chris we know your true identity, Spit it out
XD YES!!! He was like " MY OWNER CAN'T SEE THAT I HAVE EATEN ALL THE NEIGHBORS FLOWERS "
That cat has a much more interesting life than mine, currently.
This is the most wholesome youtube video I have ever seen!
Ur production quality is exceptional, great job
I think the areas he avoided were other cats' territories.
or gardens with dogs iv seen cats walk the fence line of my house to avoid going in my garden because are dog would run outside and watch them

Hi Half-Asleep Chris, I loved this video. so engaging! I was wondering also where you got the cat bowl tray from? Thanks, Wide-Awake Emma
Love this,so happy you shared it! My cat ran away 4 days now,hopefully he comes back home🥺when he does I'm getting a GPS tracker
Update?
Me : imma be quiet for my neighbors
Chris: *on megaphone*
"RALPH IF YOU CAN HEAR ME COULD YOU PLEASE COME HOME"
Me: plz be quiet
Another puppet show that makes no sense..
He's been patrolling and most likely marking (again) his territory. If there any other cats in the area, he might start coming home with some scratches or even worse, depends how territorial he gets and how strong the other cat will be.
Interesting experiment, thanks for sharing.

I think Ralph likes to hunt. He must practice catch and release because he comes in for snacks.
I love this so much

I love how you use Scrabble blocks for the text sometimes.
A couple of years ago in summer my one cat disappeared. She is an old cat so i feared she had gone out and died somewhere since she had at this point been gone for over a month. Then another month passes, she comes running back hungry af. Never seen her eat so much in my life.
Now every summer, she will be gone for weeks at end before returning home for a couple of days, before going off again. We found out she spends all her time in the huge forest behind our neighborhood. When we are out for a walk in the forest we sometimes meet her. When she sees it's us, she will walk with us home, get some food and head out again. This only happens around summer times. We like to think she goes off on a vacation or two in summer like people usually do x)
Edit: Be wary of helicopter cat moms. Little haters 😂😂
My cat sometimes goes outside for 2 days straight and it mostly happens in winter
I think if I was a cat I would spend my time in a forest, it would be cool to climb up a tree and be hidden while watching what was happening below. I might even see a Sasquatch 😀
She’s a warrior now
kudos to you for being a shitty pet owner and exposing your cat to hungry wildlife, cars and psychopaths.
Vanessa Patterson cats are hunters - I suspect it’s the wildlife that should beware the cat
You should’ve put a little camera to see everything he does.
Yes
Way back in the early 2000s, I saw a video by a guy who wondered what his cat did all day. It was hilarious because he was shocked to see the cat was like running across the freeway, getting into fights with the neighbor's dog, etc.

I am so confused by the intended audience for this video. It’s like an adult video interspersed with phrases and jingles that make it sound like it’s made for six year old kids.
I liked it! It’s quirky. But...it’s kind of confusing.
A K The audience would be for the fun “people” amongst us who are still light-hearted enough to NOT take things so seriously and enjoy the simplicity of life that subtlety unfolds around us... most people take that for granted with their crabby, crotchety ways or they simply never slow down enough to observe it (😏we call them asleep) What he captured is that same feeling you got in kindergarten when it was circle-time🧸🍪📚🥛🎨It still exists in adulthood, but people have to get over themselves to find it; and WE JUST DID!!💥

You should look into finding some help for these cats or they will just keep breeding and they will have a miserable and frightened life.

He always come back at night for food or water.
So if Ralph goes somewhere he will come back eventually
"But with the bars in the way they are the bestest of friends." Lmao. ~Guard/Prisoner
Needn't be. I've got a bunny for two years and recently got a kitten. The bun was scared of it, but after a couple days in separation, the bun was in a fence just like the guineapig here, they made friends. The kitten played around the fence just like the cat in this video. So then i tried putting them together and it worked well. Now they can easily be together unsupervised, they chase sometimes, but do not harm each other. And the cat loves to sleep in the bun's cage, right in his hay.
Best 9 minutes I've spent in a very long time! Well done and thanks for sharing.
Are all of the neighborhood streets named after Tom Hanks movies?
