Have you wanted to catch your own pet in action, when you are away from home or in another part of the house? Well, that is exactly what I’m doing here on my phone. My cat bro Bert is the naughtiest cat I know of, and I am going to get his naughtiness on tape! My Vimtag monitoring camera is the ideal device to catch any pet in action!
You may remember back in December I caught Bailie and cat bro Bert doing some naughty stuff using my Vimtag camera. Not surprising, Bert is still up to a lot of naughtiness, including stealing dog food right out of our food bowls when Mom leaves the kitchen!
Bert is not shy, which means he has no trouble committing his crime right in front of my photographer! Seriously, the cat shouldn’t be on the counter, let alone stealing dog food! Sheesh!
I’ve had enough of his antics! I’m setting up my Vimtag camera so I can keep an eye on this ruthless cat! This camera is great! Just to remind you of a few of the fantastic features:
- Recording is in HD video quality (1280 x 720px), micro SD card not included
- Vimtag can take still shots or record video
- It has a motion detection alarm notification feature
- Monitoring can take place from anywhere in the world as long as the camera is online and your device has an internet connection
- The camera can be panned and tilted from your remote location (320 Degree x 120 degree range)
- There is a two way microphone which can also be used remotely
- Darkness is not a problem with the 12 Infrared LEDs for night vision up to 10 meters
Bert got wind of my plan and tried to schmooze with the Vimtag to stay on the good side, but it is my Vimtag, and it only listens to me!
I love that I can get the free app on my Android or Iphone so I can monitor what is going on in front of my Vimtag camera from anywhere in the world as long as there is internet!
There is also a free app for tablets and computers so I can keep an eye on what’s happening in front of my Vimtag camera from those devices too. It is ideal that I can pan around, and see where exactly that naughty cat is hanging out.
You may remember I caught Bailie shredding my bed and jumping on furniture with my Vimtag! She was so busted! This silly cat has no idea of the trouble he is in when I finish collecting evidence of his bad behavior for my mom. If you don’t want to catch a pet in action, the Vimtag is also useful to monitor young children or the elderly, but I think pets are more fun!
Now for the best news of the day! I am giving away one Vimtag VT-361, the same camera I have, to one lucky winner. The Vimtag is valued at about $100! The winner will receive a code to order the camera from Amazon.com, but shipping will be the responsibility of the winner. Do you know your pets? Are they as well behaved as you think they are when you are not home? You may be surprised! To enter, simply fill out the giveaway widget below.

wooo hooo! Your review was my fave of this product!!!! Bert cracks me up!
Thank you. It is a ton of fun, and we use the camera a lot. It makes a great training tool if you have a naughty pet because you can see exactly what they are up to and when and how they do it
Oh this cam is THE MUST HAVE for every curious mom… mine jumps with joy what fabulous things are pawsible with that cam :o) btw: will the videotapes count as a proof in front of a court? … just asking lol
I don’t think cats have a say in court, so the cat ones count for sure ๐ Not sure dog ones are admissible.
what is it they say ‘ignorance is bliss’ ๐
Not really when you need to find out how it happened so you can get it to stop. This has been a great training tool because it shows how things are done when pets are left alone.
Darn – it posted before we finished – we think we would have to dead a camera like that if MOm bought on into the house – she might see we do nothing but sleep all day ๐
That happens to me too. My videos are boring because all I do is sleep, and Katie just wanders from one sleeping spot to another, but Bert and Bailie always have something going on.
Love your review! What naughty siblings you have
Bailie and cat bro Bert are known as double trouble around here.
We’re in, but I’m afraid all I’ll catch is my two sleeping all day!
With me there is nothing going on either, but if you have a Bailie or Bert, it can be entertaining, or frightening!
I am not sure if I want the mom to see what I do when she’s not here! I could get in some serious trouble.I wonder how the inside of mouth will be when I carry the device around? XOXO Sparkle the PBGV
Can’t carry it too far because it has to be plugged in ๐ It might help your mom figure out more about what you do and why when she is not home. It has helped with Bailie.
That Bert is one sneaky little kitty, but he’s no match for your 007 spying skills, Emma! I remember a long time ago when David Letterman taped his dog during the day. It was just a series of the dog going from one place in the house to another and sleeping. That’ll make the humans who are at work jealous. ๐
That sounds like a tape of Katie and me. Bailie and cat bro Bert make the videos interesting!
Watching Jax and his antics would be like going to the movies I’m sure. Would love to have one of these.
It’s a blast, although sometimes scary! It can be a good training tool too if you have time to be out of the house and to keep returning quickly to solve problems.
I feel like all this cameras should come with a warning: “Not responsible for what we catch your pet doing while you’re away.”
That might be a real good idea! It can be scary…if you live with Bailie or cat bro Bert.
Watch out Bert! Emma is on the case. That naughty naughty cat!
He’s up for worst pet on the planet once again!
You know she wants to catch us in the act
Snorts,
Lily & Edward
I have nothing to hide because I am well behaved, so I figure I can promote this camera.
Just this morning I caught Delilah scarfing for stuff on the couch. She knows better! I’d love photographic evidence~
Oh yeah…prime candidate! Good luck! I think you would get some good footage!
How fabulous! What a grand idea!
It is a grand idea if you are well behaved…some of the furs in my house, are not so thrilled I think.
I started to say that is very cool Emma, but then seeing someone on the counter…I’m not sure!
Well, do you kitties have something to hide? My kitty Sophie has no worries, but cat bro Bert…big troublemaker!
My three year old daughter loves Emma in her glasses
Thank you. These are my new glasses with the fancy rhinestones.
That Bert is such a character….schmoozing up to the Vimtag and all! You’ve seen our Sam trying to get into the dogs’ food too, also right in front of the camera. I just don’t know about these cats!
This would be fun. I’d love to see what the crew gets up to when we’re not home.
It can be quite enlightening. Bert has no qualms about stealing from Mom either.
I would absolutely love to win this! Always worry about Ruby when I am at work especially on long days. Would be so much fun to have one of these.
We just love ours and use it all the time. Good luck.
The mom really wants a Vimtag. Us…not so much. We don’t want her to be able to see everything we do!
If you are well behaved when you are home alone like me, no big deal, but if you are a troublemaker, uh oh…
A great way to keep track of naughty dogs or cats!
–Wags (and purrs) from Life with Dogs and Cats
It is ideal, and we use ours all the time.
This would be great because we plan on adding a new pup to the family which is exciting but now Nala will have a partner in crime so who know what they will be up to.
It would be fun to see what the puppy gets into!
That Bert….he sure is a handful!! Mama and Daddy say they would love to see what we were up to when they are on vacation!!
Smileys!
Dory, Jakey, Arty & Bilbo
Win your own Vimtag and they will find out ๐
We so want to catch Cocoa when we are not around!! It would be so funny!!
Mom says it is funny to see, but also a scary helpless feeling since you are not home! We love the Vimtag.
Bert is going to need a good lawyer! That is an impressive leap to the counter. I’m glad the schmoozing didn’t work. That made me laugh!
The guy has amazing jump and steal capabilities. If he was a human, he would be in the headlines for smash and grabs I think.
Oh, Bert you are too funny!!! ๐
Funny yes, a pain in the furs, definitely!
First Bailie kisses the Petzi, then Bert rubs against the Vimtag…..can I come housesit you guys?!
I’d like to know at what point during the time we’re gone that my Bay-Li decides she needs to empty my bathroom trash can! She’s my perfectly behaved girl in every other way!
My middle sis has 3 cats, her newest rescue woke them up at 2am last week because she was pulling Rubbermaid containers out of a kitchen cabinet! And her 2 older boys will grab her arm as she’s eating to try and guide the food to them instead….silly kitties!
Many questions can be answered with the Vimtag, that I know for sure. We just love it!
Thank you! This one has some great features.
We really love this Vimtag and use it all the time! It is a great camera.
Omg this is so cool!!! Good luck to everyone entering!!
แฆ husky hugz แฆ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
I asked about Canada, but got a no. Wish you could enter. It is such a fun thing to have around.
LOL Bert is busted!
He is busted so many times every day, but he doesn’t seem to care.
Would love this…especially with all Gracie’s health issues right now. Love you Emma.
There are so many good uses for it as well as entertaining ones! I’m sure it would be great to keep an eye on Gracie. We sure hope she improves.
Our pawrents would love to spy on us when they aren’t home. Thanks for the giveaway…we think.
Millie & Walter
As long as you guys are like me, well behaved, it shouldn’t be a problem ๐ Good luck to you!
That is awesome! Love Bert, you are very good shape being able to jump like that.
Criminals need to stay in shape to be able to steal, and make a good getaway!
We would love one – we love spy films about pets – hopefully they will launch north of the border but in the meantime, we can enjoy Bert’s antics.
We asked about Canada, but they said only US. Bummer as it is a great camera.
Love this review. I’d love to catch some naughty antics as well as see who the intruder is in our yard. Thanks for the giveaway.
It is quite captivating if stuff is going on at your house! Lucky for me, I just sleep, so it isn’t an issue for me.
oooh, how do you like PromoSimple vs Rafflecopter? Never heard of that before!
Definitely prefer PromoSimple. The free version offers so many more options for setting time, adding a photo, different social media. Haven’t used Rafflecopter in a while because it is too limited.
This is pawesome! I needs it so I can keep an eye on Tilda ๐
Over & Out,
Matt
It is such a fun tool! We use ours all the time!
