MiniFinder Gato has been named the best budget GPS tracker for cats by Testkompassen. In its review, Gato is highlighted as an affordable option for cat owners who want to see their cat’s location and keep a better eye on where they go outdoors.
Testkompassen particularly highlights the combination of real-time GPS tracking, virtual fences and a durable design at a reasonable price. Gato also receives praise for its location history, activity data and support for both iOS and Android.
In the review, MiniFinder Gato is praised for its real-time GPS tracking through the MiniFinder Live app. Cat owners can simply open the app and see their cat’s current location directly on the map.
Location history also makes it possible to see your cat’s movement patterns and the routes they usually take. This can be especially useful when your cat stays out longer than usual, or when you simply want to know where they are.
Testkompassen also highlights the geofencing feature, which lets you create virtual fences around a selected area and receive a notification if your cat leaves it. The combination of a lower price and these key features, with real-time tracking standing out in particular, led to Gato being named the winner of the best budget category.

For many cat owners, it is perfectly normal for their cat to head off on their own adventures during the day. Most of the time they return as usual, but sometimes they stay out longer than expected. In these situations, a GPS tracker for cats can make it easier to see where your cat is instead of having to start searching without knowing which direction they have gone.
Unlike a Bluetooth-based solution, Gato uses GPS and the mobile network to send its location to MiniFinder Live. This means your cat’s location does not depend on other mobile phones or devices being nearby. The device does, however, need mobile network coverage to send its position to the app.
Geofencing can also be useful in everyday life. You can create an area around your home or holiday home, for example, and receive a notification if your cat leaves that area. You can then open the app straight away to see where your cat is.
MiniFinder has been developing GPS solutions for dogs and other animals for many years. With MiniFinder Gato, we wanted to create a GPS tracker specifically designed for cats and the way they move in everyday life.
Gato combines real-time GPS tracking, location history, geofencing and activity data in a small GPS tracker that attaches to your cat’s collar. For us, it is primarily about giving cat owners a simple way to keep a better eye on their cat when they are out exploring on their own.
We are of course especially pleased to see Gato recognised by Testkompassen and named the winner of the best budget category.
