How about a luggage locator that you can use to find your baggage 
at an airport? You just push a little remote and the receiver 
beeps and I think some have a 60 foot range.  So take that all 
you cats! Jim WA6EKS

lol, I've never seen one of those things either but I have a cat 
who if he's
not tripping me, he's doing that.  Ours are indoor cats and never 
go out but
have been trapped in the sun room over night before when I was 
out on a late
night ham radio net or something since my station is out there.  
I've often
wondered about something like that myself or a bell or what ever 
but if
they're perfectly still, the bell won't do any good either.

I sat outside for five hours yesterday morning listening for 
escaped cats.
 They know if they get out, that I can't find them if they don't 
move.
 Well,
 that left me plenty of time to think.  I have never seen one of 
those key
 finder things, where you have one device that makes a noise, and 
a remote
 that activates it.  So is the receiver to heavy for a cat 
collar?
 Wouldn't
 the cats be surprised to make noises when they didn't move?  Is 
this idea
 pheasible with out being inhumane?

 You know they are sitting stock still a foot and a half out of 
my reach;
 laughing their heads off at me.
