If before raising a cat was all about trying to give your furry friend the necessary attention, today the situation is a little easier. Mainly, due to the large number of apps for Android and iOS on the market.

From games to social networks, passing through services such as a pet shop, delivery of medicine and food, and entertainment, apps for cats make life much easier for tutors. Mainly, when they need to work from home, and the feline decides to show up to see what the human is doing (like in this case, here).

So we went looking for (free) apps for cats and cat tutors. Apps for both mobile and tablet.

There are many that are basically the old game of touching something. For example, a little mouse appears walking across the screen, and your cat needs to put its paw on it; the mouse makes a funny noise and disappears; another appears, the game restarts.

These apps don't interest us that much. We are looking here for apps for cats that are original, fun and much more interactive than the example above. Did you know that there is a dating app for pets? That there is a rations app? One that organizes your pet's medicine schedule?

Check out the list below, and include your cat in the digital age!

10. 1,2,3 Smash: Bugs!

10. 1,2,3 Smash: Bugs!

App thought for children, but that works well for cats. It's a little game of smashing the bugs on the screen. Each time the cat “squeezes” the insect, there is a funny noise, and the difficulty level increases. Available for Android and iOS.

9. Mice Catch – Cat Game

Mice Catch – Cat Game

App for cats that is a variation of the game of picking up the sticker that appears on the screen.

Unlike others, however, this game for cats has phases, the mouse is walking, there are different sounds. There is also the option to create videos and take pictures of your cat playing. Your feline will be entertained for hours!

Available for Android and iOS.

8. Magic piano

magic piano

App for cats and humans too. A success, in both cases. It is a musical keyboard that allows you to create compositions, record your “works”, make songs with funny sounds…

In addition, it has “sheet music” for those who want to play well-known songs. From classics (like Mozart and Beethoven) to pop (like Bruno Mars and Coldplay), it's a hit! And, your cat is entertained for hours, as in the case of the cat from this video here.

Both for the cat and for the tutor, it is a great exercise to stimulate motor coordination, attention, the brain and also to relax and de-stress. Your cat will be playing for hours!

Available for Android and iOS.

7. Snap cat

snap cat

An app for your cat to take photos and videos. It may seem like a simple thing, but when you remember that cats don't recognize themselves in the mirror, then the app becomes great fun.

Your cat takes its own photos by pressing a button that appears on the screen (which can be replaced by the figure of a laser, a small animal, an insect), and then sees the photo itself (which can be programmed by the tutor to be posted on the networks) .

Available for Android and iOS.

6. Pet perfect

perfect pet

The name of the app for cats and cat tutors is loosely inspired by the “Perfect Match” website. Those who know the site know: it is a site for dating couples. Here, the proposal is almost that.

Here is an app for the “meeting” of animals waiting for adoption and humans wanting to adopt. As with Tinder, you fill out a profile, say what you like (athletic or house pets? Adults or puppies? Longhair or shorthair? Etc.), and the app will show you “candidates” that fit.

In addition, the app serves as a website to identify lost pets based on geolocation. That is, your cat runs away from home; then you post photos of him and select the location where the pussy got lost, allowing users to see the ad and submit information.

Finally, it is an app that also allows interaction between tutors. So, you can chat with tutors, exchange photos, information, tips… And who knows, even phone a tutor?

Or will you say that you don't remember of this scene from 101 Dalmatians, in which the dog becomes the “cupid” of its owner?

Available for Android and iOS.

5. Relax my Cat

An app with music and sounds to de-stress your cat

App for cats, also available in the “Relax my dog” version. The proposal is an application with songs and sounds to de-stress your cat. Especially in situations with a very high noise level.

For example, at the end of the year, or at a football championship, when there are many fireworks. Your cat has a very sensitive ear. These sounds can injure his hearing aid. In addition to causing excessive stress, increasing the heart rate, making the cat restless.

The proposal of the app is, therefore, to leave the cat at ease. The sounds are at a frequency suitable for cats, and range from music to ambient sounds, including noises. App to take care of the health of kittens.

Available for Android and iOS.

4. Pet Booking

Pet Booking, an app for cat owners that shows all kinds of services for pets, wherever you are

The holidays arrive and then you want to travel, right? And, this year, you don't have to leave the hairiest family member out, fair enough. What to do? Download Pet Booking, an app for cat owners that shows you all kinds of services for pets, wherever you are.

Through the location of your device, the app will indicate services such as a veterinary clinic, pet shop, and even the nearest day care and pet-friendly hotels. Thus, you are not caught by surprise, in case of any unforeseen events.

Similar to sites like Trip Advisor and Booking.com, here users evaluate services, write comments, the owner of the establishment can respond and, by registering, you have access to exclusive discounts and promotions.

Available for Android and iOS

3. Pet Love

Open Pet Love and look for the closest and cheapest delivery in your region

App for cat tutors, focused on helping what often becomes a source of stress: buying the right products for your friend. During the day-to-day, sometimes, we can't even stop by the market to buy a decent dinner.

For the cat, this is not possible. He needs to have his ration always up to date. Then you come home and it's over, and you're exhausted. What to do? Open Pet Love and look for the closest and cheapest delivery service in your region.

As an app that issues warnings, so you don't forget to stop by the pet shop, or as a delivery app, Pet Love will help you!

Available for Android and iOS

2. PetSafe

PetSfae is intended to be a first aid application

Essential app for cat and dog tutors, PetSfae is intended to be a first aid app. Essential, so that you can preserve the health of your animal, until you find the veterinarian.

In it, you report what is happening to your cat, through various filters (part of the body, symptoms, appearance, among others) and it points out what the possible problem is and what immediate measures should be taken.

Very important, especially if your cat's case involves contamination (for example, the cat had contact with bleach). Those who know animals know: sometimes the worsening of a symptom happens in less than 1 minute, because the humans around did not provide adequate first aid.

Available for Android and iOS

1. My Pets – Pet Manager

For those who are guardians of more than 1 animal, it is the perfect app

One of the best apps for cats and dogs out there. In the day-to-day rush, we can't always remember, for example, the next vet appointment, or, what is the vaccine deadline, right? And writing on paper or a diary doesn't seem to be effective either (we lose the paper, we forget to look at the diary…).

That's where the Pet Manager comes in. A real electronic agenda for your pet. In the application, you can write down absolutely all information relating to your cat. For those who tutor more than 1 animal, it's the perfect app!

From the basics – name, date of birth, race, height, weight, color – to the most advanced – date of the last vaccination, date of the last bath, date of the last visit to the veterinarian, health information (history of medicines and health problems, for example).

The app also allows you to have a neuter record of the professionals who care for your pet, to make emergency calls. Furthermore, it has the option of sending warnings to remind the user that a ration is running out, or that an important date is approaching.

A true virtual assistant for managing your cat's life. We highly recommend this app for everyone who has cats and dogs at home.

Available for iOS.
