Why the ROLA Mini Pet Camera Is My Favorite Deal for October Prime Day

  • Post category:Tech

My cat is not nice. She’s not patient or cute. She won’t let you pet or hold her. She’s all business, and she definitely doesn’t play. I tried catnip, all kinds of toys, and balls of string, but Peepers was never interested until I got a Rola Cat Robot, a completely ridiculous but completely awesome robotic cat toy and surveillance camera. And for a few, glorious moments, I got her to bat a toy around. I caught it on video too—evidence to use against her later.

The Rola Cat Robot is on sale for October Prime Day for $119.00, down from $149.00. Whether that’s “worth it” is a personal choice, but I love the thing. It does exactly what it promises, and does it better than I expected. It’s an adorable little robot you can control with an app on your phone, and it takes surprisingly nice-looking 2K video, even when it’s dark. It transmits and listens to sound, and you can press a button to make it meow, bark, or quack. It can even act as a surveillance camera and take pictures or video when something moves in front of it.

If you have a cat or dog that isn’t a joyless misanthrope like mine, you could keep them company from work or anywhere else. Or you could use it just to keep an eye on things around your house. I wouldn’t have expected it, but the Rola Cat Robot is my favorite deal on Amazon Prime Day.
