Have you ever wondered where your cat ventures when it leaves the house? Aoife McAleer from Ireland was determined to find out what her cat, Jagger, is up to when she strolls through the neighborhood, so she purchased a collar with a GPS tracker and put it on her cat. And while it’s a great tool to keep an eye on your furry friend in real time in case it tries to escape, this invasion into the cat’s privacy turned into an unexpected discovery. Turns out, Jagger is too clever to have one owner to provide regular pets and snacks. In 24 hours, this cat visited about five houses on her way and returned home like nothing happened, but this time, she was caught.
Jagger’s adventures got exposed on the internet and didn’t go unnoticed. When Aoife McAleer posted a video with her little experiment on TikTok, it immediately went viral with 380.3k views and 44.3k likes. She then had to spy on her other cat, Cookie, who appears to be a little bit more loyal.

“The collar let me track where she visited. I knew she visited two houses in the area and they loved to see her coming. It was interesting to see she visited another 2 houses also,” the owner told Bored Panda.

“She was 6 years old and a feral kitten when we got her. We took her in and made her part of the family, but she still loved her natural roaming instincts and would venture out daily, but return every evening for bedtime.”
