The best cat security cameras give you peace of mind when you\u2019re away from your cat. Reliable notifications, pet detection features, and high-quality videos are a must. Additional features, like treat tossers and laser pointers, promise to help you engage with your cat while you\u2019re away, but they tend to cost more, both upfront and in monthly fees.<\/p>\n

After testing out some of the top security cameras on the market, I\u2019ve concluded that for most cats, pet-specific cameras probably aren\u2019t worth it. All three of the pet cams I tried were unnecessarily expensive and required a subscription to unlock basic features found in lower-priced security cameras.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why my overall favorite cat camera is Eufy\u2019s Solo Indoorcam P24<\/a>. For $39.99<\/a>, this camera builds upon great video quality and a great user interface with plenty of pet-specific detection features and notifications. It doesn\u2019t have any kind of treat tosser or laser pointer<\/a>, but you can still engage with your cat via 2-way voice communication. The video is clear and consistent, and you get everything you need without an expensive subscription.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re set on getting a fun cam with cat-focused bells and whistles, the Furbo 360 Dog Camera may be a better option, but remember that the fun comes at a price\u2014the unit itself costs over $200, and full functionality through a subscription starts at almost $60 a year. Read on to get the details on all five of my recommendations.<\/p>\n
