Interactive Wi-Fi Pet Camera
You and your pet won’t ever be truly apart with the Petcube Play Wi-Fi Pet Camera. This interactive camera connects to your smartphone and puts you in touch with your furry best friend at all times. The real-time video allows you to see every pounce or bark right as it happens, while the two-way audio lets you tell your pet you miss him and hear his response.
There’s even a built-in laser that you can play live or schedule for autoplay, which helps relieve boredom when you aren’t around. While the humans are at work, your furbabies can play! Place it on any flat surface or mount it on a tripod, and it easily connects to the internet so you can start streaming in minutes.

My thoughts:
The Petcube Play is such a fun way to interact with your dog or cat while you’re away from home. You just place it in a spot they visit regularly during the day like their pet bed or their food or water dish. Then, you can check in on them using the app on your phone during the day. You can take pictures or videos with the app and the Petcube Play and edit them right in the app.
Plus, unlike a regular camera, the Petcube Play has a built-in laser toy that lets you play with and exercise your pet during the day by manipulating the laser. And, you can talk to your pet and hear them with 2-way audio. You can load the app on more than one phone so you and your spouse can both use it when you’re away from home.
I love that the Petcube Play has a wide angle view so you’re seeing a big portion of the room not just a small area in front of the lens. The video quality is quite good but it will depend on the strength of your Wi-Fi connection and internet speed. The app is free and available for iOS and Android.
This is a fun gift for any pet lover or treat yourself and your pet to a little bit more interaction during the day. You can find the Petcube Play on Chewy.com.
