About Us
CATLINK is an intelligent cat-care brand founded in 2017, the company is committed to building a smart pet ecosystem where people, things, and pets can connect with each other. Product research and development are totally based on the actual needs of cats and their parents. CATLINK products, such as the Self-cleaning Scooper, have been placed among the highest ranks in the world.
CATLINK’s purpose is to make cats and cat owners’ life easier and happier by automating most of the cat-care process. We have 3 cats in our office, the CATLINK Design Team is constituted by cat parents that are aware of the needs for both, cat and owner.
Most of the smart cat-care items in the market only focus on automating the feeding, watering, and stool scooping processes for cats, despite convenience being a positive feature, it doesn't cover all the needs of a cat. When cat owners take care of the stool scooping process on a daily basis, they can determine if the cat is having digestive problems; with automated cat litter boxes several days can pass until cat owners identify any digestive disease in their cats, leading to aggravating the cat's health or cause their death.
CATLINK not only covers the automated feeding, drinking and stool scooping processes, but also monitors and records their data. The CATLINK app will generate visualization charts for each cat: 24 hours, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year.
OUR MISSION
To create a smart pet ecosystem and become the first cat-care choice so cats around the world can have a happier and healthier life.
OUR VISION
To use technology to make every cat’s live healthier and longer
SMART CAT APP REPORTS
CATLINK App will compare the gathered data to obtain the cat’s behavior average report (drinking, feeding, or toileting) and remind the owners when they need to pay attention to their cat’s health.
In 2020 more than 100,000 people used the CATLINK App, and forty million health reminders were forwarded.
The CATLINK team will keep focusing on Research & Development to bring more great products.
We wish the best for every cat!
CATLINK’S STORY: WHERE THERE IS A WILL THERE IS A WAY
In December 2017, a group of IT men passionate about technology products gathered together to achieve a dream that had been rooted for three years: to establish CATLINK and create an interconnected smart-pet-device network based on “people-things-pets”. In 2019 and against all adversities, but with a strong spirit, the founding team was able to turn their “interconnected smart pet device network” idea into the world’s first Smart Cat Litter Box that monitors the cat’s health behavior, as well as a series of Smart Feeders and Cameras in the upcoming year.
One step at a time, the CATLINK founding team made their dream come true.
OUR DREAM
CATLINK is an entrepreneurial team with mostly tech savvy guys, an IT men’s club. It seems that such group of people, who only work with computers, wouldn’t be able to understand a cat needs, however, they are practicing the warmest pet declaration using technology to help cats around the work to live a happier and healthier life.
DATA THAT CANNOT BE SPECIFIC TO EACH CAT IS MEANINGLESS
CATLINK believes that technology is an extension of the human senses, therefore, we make sure our products are not only smart but conscious about a cat’s needs: CATLINK’s self-cleaning litter box has a multi-cat recognition and monitoring feature that keep tracks of every cat’s toileting pattern; CATLINK’s feeder has a multi-cat support and built-in side doors that will prevent cats from jumping the feeding queue; CATLINK’s Water Fountain not only supports multiple cats, but helps tracking the cat’s drinking behaviors to identify and prevent any urinary diseases in advance.
By developing an interconnected smart pet device network, we help people to have a stronger and healthier bond with their cats for a longer time.
CATLINK’S CONTRIBUTION TO THE CAT-CARE PROCESS
October 15, 2020
The CATLINK team detected an eating abnormality in Prince’s feeding patterns (one of the CATLINK’s team cats) through the feeding data detection of the CATLINK App. The “big belly king” Prince, who eats 3oz of food every day, had been eating less than one ounce of food for two consecutive days. Thanks to the app early warning, Prince visited the vet on time and avoided any digestive diseases he could have gotten.
October 16, 2020,
CATLINK Thai user Kanda (who owns 18 cats), identified a strange urinary pattern in one of her cats, by using the CATLINK’s App report feature she noticed that the cat “Dumpling” increased its toileting rate, going from 2-3 times a day to more than 10 times in a single day; Kanda took Dumpling to the vet and saved her lovely cat from getting a kidney failure, the vet said that if Kanda hadn’t taken the cat to the clinic that day, it would have suffer severe kidney damage.
“Today I would like to thank CATLINK for saving our cat Dumpling….”
After Dumpling got out of danger, Mrs. Kanda and her husband wrote a thank-you letter to the CATLINK team. The letter was less than a thousand words, but the sincere gratitude of the user and the importance of saving her cat's life has motivated the CATLINK team to continue pursuing their dream: to link all the cat-care processes to a single network so they and their parents can enjoy a better, healthier, and longer life together.
As of today, CATLINK series have been sold in 42 countries around the globe, more than 2,000 pet hospitals and experienced catteries use CATLINK products. Since 2019, the CATLINK App has provided nearly 300 million health reports to 200,000 registered cats around the world, registering hundreds of cat rescue cases. CATLINK’s goal is to: LINK all the cat-care processes to a single network so they and their parents can enjoy a better, healthier, and longer life together!
