No one likes leaving their four-legged pals at home, however it is inevitable with many people working jobs that require time away from the house. Pet owners may tend to worry about what their furry friends may be up to at home, especially when they are still in their younger years.
Well pet owners can now have a better peace of mind by purchasing an indoor camera that can be linked to their phone. Amazon is currently selling the Ring Indoor Camera (2nd Gen) for a reduced price of £34, down 32 per cent from its £49.99 RRP.
This is a relatively small price to pay in order to keep an eye on your furriest family member, as well as heightening the overall security in your house. The Ring Indoor Camera can be easily plugged in and either placed on a flat surface or mounted to the wall with its versatile mounting bracket.

By connecting the Ring Indoor Camera to an app on your phone, you can check in on your pet in real-time by watching the live video. You also have the option to talk to your beloved animal with the two-way talk feature, which will make them feel like they are never alone.
For those concerned with privacy, you can easily control the privacy cover from your phone, which will cover the camera and turn off the microphone on the device. The Ring Indoor Camera makes sure you have complete control over what the camera sees, hears and records.
Customers have been over the moon with the device, which boasts a 4.6 rating on Amazon from over 6,000 reviews. One five-star reviewer commented: “Top quality, super easy connection process. I had already ring doorbell 2nd gen. New camera is perfect for watching for dog activity, night vision, motion detectors etc. Strongly recommended.”
Another person added: “Such a great little cam especially for the price, clear images and live view seems pretty spot on speed wise. It’s pretty sensitive to movement, I bought mine to keep an eye on my tortoise Dandelion and our ferrets in their shed, it’s really been a big help.”
Meanwhile, a third said: “Picture quality is good and can zoom in, you can listen and talk on it. Bought it to keep an eye on the dog when we’re out. More than does the job.”
However, not everyone was fully satisfied with the camera, as one customer warns: “Be aware of the cable length. It’s not long, so you need to know the distance from the plug to the position you require to see if you need a longer lead.”
