“Here at Logitech, we love our pets, and we’re thrilled to work with San
Francisco SPCA and the MSPCA-Angell to give new pet parents the Logi
Circle, so they can stay connected to their furry friend even when
they’re away from home,” said Vincent Borel, director of new ventures at
Logitech.

The Sponsorship: Logitech x SPCA

In addition to providing adopters with a free Logi Circle in May,
between June and October, Logitech is offering every on-site cat or dog
adopters with a $50 discount coupon toward the Logi Circle. Both the San
Francisco SPCA and Boston’s MSPCA-Angell have set up live streams
powered by the Logi Circle. You can tune into live video of adoptable
animals by visiting: https://www.mspca.org/adoption-centers/adoption-center-live-stream/
and https://www.sfspca.org/adoptions/videostreams.

“Our partnership with Logitech makes it even easier to bring a new pet
into your life,” said Cynthia Kopec, the chief operating officer of San
Francisco SPCA. “We want to help adopters find their perfect match – our
goal is a loving home and lasting bond. We find homes for approximately
5,000 animals every year, and we’re excited that the Logi Circle will
help our adopters stay connected with their pets throughout the day.”

“We do our best to prep adopters so that the transition to a new home
goes smoothly for both the pet and parent,” said Jean Weber, director of
animal protection at MSPCA-Angell. “When Logitech introduced us to the
Logi Circle, we knew the camera could help the relationship between the
parent and pet thrive.”

The Facts: Connecting With Your Pet

The Logitech survey also found that 86 percent of pet parents agree
that their pet would be happier if they could interact with them when
they’re away from home
. Plus, the survey results show that 56
percent of pet parents want to watch their pet while they’re away, and
46 percent of pet parents want to talk to their pet
when they are
away.

The Logi Circle features a built-in mic and speaker that let you talk to
your pet at home, so you can say “hello” to the new puppy or hear if he
is barking. Through the free iOS® or Android™ app, the camera features
unlimited HD video streaming with night vision and personal, daily
summaries called Day Briefs™. With Day Briefs, pet parents can now know
what their pet does all day, in just 30 seconds. Created on-demand, Day
Briefs can be downloaded, and then shared with family or friends
anytime. The Logi Circle is designed to let you watch over your pets and
home, so you’ll always have paws in your hands.
