## What is Whisker Tracker?

Whisker Tracker is a community for cat lovers, caretakers, and cat photographers. You can create cat profiles, manage all your outdoor cat sightings, and help find missing pets. The app uses cat facial recognition to identify and catalog cats. This app is great for casual cat lovers and helpful to the rescue community!



Many people will see outdoor cats while on their walks and like to take pictures of their cute neighborhood kitties. Whisker Tracker will help you catalog, manage, and organize your cat sightings from all around the world. Each cat profile has a photo album, a list of health and behavioral statuses, location pins, and notes so you can capture all the great memories of your cat sightings.



We’ll never make the cats’ locations public to protect their privacy. Each cat map is unique to you for the cats you’ve spotted.



If you manage a cat colony, do TNR, or do field work for cat rescues, Whisker Tracker will help you organize and manage your community cats. Track the habits of the kitties, frequency of visits, and location of your colonies, and list veterinary care needs in the note section. This app is extremely easy to use out in the field, all you need to start is to take or upload a photo of a cat.



It’s estimated that 55% of indoor-only cats will get out and go missing at least once in their lifetime. That means over 9,000 cats are reported missing every day. Whisker Tracker uses cat facial recognition software to match your cat pictures with lost pet pictures, helping to reunite lost pets, even if you aren't actively looking for them (coming soon).

Cat facial recognition enables a new level of community engagement that starts with a cat sighting. You can leave public comments on a cat’s wall to give them a voice and share notes with neighbors. Start a conversation with other cat spotters in your community! Whisker Tracker can also help connect cat caretakers with donations and supplies from cat lovers in their local area.



Are you the ultimate Cat Master? The Whisker Tracker cat app will offer fun walking and fitness challenges, badges for cat sightings, and community sharing (coming soon). Level up your cat skills and reach the top of the kitty leaderboard! Find them all and become the Whisker Whisperer or the Crazy Cat Lady!



Our mission is to identify all the stray cats in the world so we can help them all. There are 100+ million stray cats in the USA alone, and we estimate there are over 1 billion strays worldwide. With your help, we can find them all! The safety and security of the cats is our top priority. For the privacy of the cats, you’ll only be able to see the location of the cats you’ve found. If we can find them all, we can better track them and support them.

### 5/5 — Such a game changer!

*2025-06-18*

Wow! Whisker Tracker is a fantastic and useful resource for community cat caretakers, cat enthusiasts, neighbors, and the like. I haven’t seen anything like this before. I am excited to add the cats in my neighborhood who I’ve TNR’d and take care of, as well as a few who have gone missing through the years. Thanks for creating a helpful app!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the purrfectly wonderful review! 🐾 We're so glad Whisker Tracker is helping you care for your community cats and honor those you've helped over the years.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2024-12-08*

This is a nice app. I take care of community cats (feral colony) and this is helping me organize them by name. I have a trail cam that helps me recognize any newcomers but now I can keep track of them all in one place. I wish my neighbors wound use this app b/c I would love to know who else feeds them. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your pawmazing review! 🐾 We're thrilled that Whisker Tracker is helping you organize and care for your community cats. We just released our Cat Facial Recognition and Catalog features, which should make tracking and identifying newcomers even easier!

We love seeing dedicated caretakers like you using the app and truly appreciate your support in this movement. To help spread the word, we offer a flyer you can post in your community if that would be helpful. Together, we can make an even bigger impact for our feline friends! 

We are developing many more features, so we'd love to hear more of your feedback about how you are using the app. You can easily reach us at whiskertrackers@gmail.com.

### 5/5 — Good app, needs some updates.

*2024-11-17*

I’m very pleased with the app, I’m a TNR’r, fosterer, cat mother, and rescuer, so I encounter a lot of cats daily. This app is lovely, but i have a few add ones/ suggestions
(A lot of theese are totally random, and ur app is amazing the way it is, but if y’all run out of ideas;)

- I wish I could see other peoples profiles or search through other peoples images. I feel like it could be better that way. 

-Also maybe a private journal option where you can personally add your cats photos or cats you see that are not necessary lost. 

- this isn’t really in the same category of the app BUT I feel like it could be cool if there was a chat group with a group of people/Ai, where you could ask questions about what the difference of feral/stray cats or where you can describe a cat you saw and it would show you the best options of the cats, (like image finder kinda) if you didn’t just even a forum that says that stuff.

- once you open the app, it has just the bare minimum of stuff, (I GET THAT YALL ARE ADDING STUFF! This is just like small criticism and I love this app) so maybe just idk add stuff

-my biggest complaint is I can’t see anyone else’s cat’s they have found (I get that this app isn’t popular and it came out a few days ago, but I don’t even see an option/feed to see it.) I’m sure there is already one but I just can’t see it.

-possibly a feed/search engine to look for cats?

Once again, as a cat lady who is very involved in TNR, I love this app alot. I also get that it’s still in beta development but it’s cool!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the pawesome feedback! We love your ideas and have already made progress on several of them. The Catalog is now live, which lets you see nearby cats (with locations kept private for safety). Plus, a summer update is coming with gamification, better facial recognition, and new ways to connect with fellow cat lovers! 😺

### 5/5 — The app I didn’t know I needed

*2024-10-20*

As a cat rescuer, TNR’r, foster, and cat mom this app is wonderful. Rather than have to search through all my photos to find cats and then use my notes in my phone to find the info. This app allows me to do all of that all in one. As a cat lover and animal advocate I love this concept. It was easy to figure out. I truly think as a cat rescuer this is the app that I didn’t know unneeded but will be extremely useful in my day to day cat adventures.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your meowvelous review! It’s awesome that Whisker Tracker is making your life as a rescuer, TNR advocate, foster, and cat mom easier by keeping everything in one place. Having dedicated advocates like you supporting this mew-vement means the world to us!

We just launched some exciting new features to help you track your kitties and connect with other cat lovers in your area. We're always working on more improvements, so we'd love to keep hearing how you're using the app and what you'd like to see next. Feel free to reach out anytime at whiskertrackers@gmail.com.

Thank mew!
