The Secret of Lost Cats - Muzzle Recognition Technology

You’ve seen them. Hanging on telephone poles and posted on supermarket bulletin boards. It says “Lost Cat” with a picture of someone’s furry friend. Dr. Nancy Davidson interviewed the people behind the signs and tells their stories. Also, John Polimeno gave up his job as a construction worker to engineer a face-recognition, or should we say “muzzle” recognition app, to help find lost animals across the country. So far, his company and app have reunited 7 pets with their owners. John explains the technology and how we can add it to the arsenal of tools. Also, Shannon Broder had an idea you wish you thought of. She takes pictures of your pet and makes a pillow. She’s even had a few strange requests. Find out how this “happy-hour” idea became big business. We’ll have giveaways. Also, a listener needs to know about FurFast, a diet aid for your pet. Is it healthy? Does it work? Dr. Debbie has the low-down on tackling pet obesity…and sometimes it calls for supplements… and of course, the Animal Radio Dream Team is answering your pet questions.
