Competitor’s Products – Type 1Audible and In-Audible Sound Deterrents

Audible (by Animals & Humans) Single Noise DeterrentHave a major limitation with today's modern home full of audible sounds, beeps, voices, such as from microwave ovens, coffee pot timers, voices on radio-TV, and other sound emitting devices.

TattleTailSingle Tone Audible Deterrent

MSRP : $29.95

CatScramUltrasonic In-Audible Deterrent

MSRP : $39.95

Ultrasonic In-Audible (by Humans) Single Sound DeterrentThe question always remains with in-audible (by humans) type of device deterrent, is the device even working properly, since you can't even hear it (in-audible) when it is working properly. As per one of the nations top retailers in this category, states in their disclaimer…

Pets Quickly Assimilates to, or Unable to Hear Sound Deterrent Event.

The fine print…"A cat may not respond to the CatScram. This happens because some cats lack the capability to hear noises as high pitched as that emitted by the CatScram. This is more common in older cats who have lost some hearing range, very young cats who have not yet fully developed, and occasionally in rare purebreds."

The pet to be deterred therefore quickly assimilates to a single audible deterrent sound, as the pet is unable to differentiate from device deterrent audible sounds from environmental or ordinary daily household sounds and noises.

Competitor’s Products – Type 2Mat Deterrents

Mats-Audible Deterrent

Place Mat in/on Off-Limits Area, Pet Walks on Mat, Mat Senses Pet, Emits Audible Sound/Beep. Product is hindered by today's modern home full of audible sounds, beeps, voices etc., such as from microwave ovens, coffee pot timers, voices on radio-TV, and other sound emitting devices.

Competitor’s Products – Type 3Canned Air Spray Deterrents

Spray Air Deterrent DevicesPlace Device in/on Off-Limits Area, Pet Walks in Sensor Range, Device Emits Short Blast of Canned Air. Effective for Horizontal Surface.

However… Consumable Aerosol Deterrent Refills make It Absolutely Cost Prohibitive To Operate (i.e. one stubborn pet cat in a household may trigger canned air blast usage of 2 or more proprietary and expensive canned air deterrent refills @ $10 each weekly; that's $20 a week !... for one cat !!). Imagine if you have 2 or more cats as most households often have, the cost of weekly refills then become a real issue.

Redirect Sensor or Turn Off before Human Can Use Pet Off-Limits Area.

Consumers understandably are resistant… to the high cost of consumable propriety canned air refills that begin to quickly add up for the pet owner, very fast, product often shelved because of high operating cost !

Buyers’ like it at first… then hate the cost of refills… then don’t use them !

In just 1 months time… Pet Owners could Spend More $$$ in Canned Air Refills,

2-4x the Product Costs ! … CUSTOMERS’ Don’t Like This !Plus… unable to view or detect remaining deterrent

supply !

CounterWatch device uses means and methods that join active contact and non-contact passive training and deterrent methods, together creating a synergistic result in the training and deterrent of the indoor household animals.

About The MarketPet Products Industry Supplies a Mass Market

Pet Cat Owners have been searching forever for a low cost pet deterrent or training device and or method, that can prevent cats unwanted behavior and or intrusions.

*** If such a device and or method became available, perhaps the pet owner may want "to use this" in the kitchen, the living room and bedroom purchasing multiples of CounterWatch™. ***

Pet Cats in the USA (95M*, 76M***) | Remaining Top Ten Major Countries (127M*)

That's 193M* Pet Cats in the World's Top Ten Countries. Over one third of Pet Cat Owners in the USA, own 2* or more cats.

Over one quarter of Pet Cat Owners, own three or more cats.

People love and spend money on their beloved cats... AND Lots of money... from fancy pet foods, fancy pet toys, and while the pet owner typically also likes their fancy kitchen countertops, fancy floors and carpeting, and fancy furniture (unsoiled & intact)...

Unfortunately... our feline friends often... do not respect cherished belongings the same way as us humans do.

The Pet Industry provides the stable platform for steady income revenue for the right product…

“ Even during the Great Recession, which slowed demand throughout most of the retail sector, the industry continued to yield revenue growth. This trend was mainly driven by an increasing number of pet parents, or pet owners who treat their four-legged friends as family members. “

“ In the five years to 2014, industry growth has largely been attributable to higher pet ownership and accompanying demand for pet products. ”IBISWorld 2014 US Pet Industry ReportIt's a fact !... the pet industry

continues with strong annual growth every year... and is proving to be immune to any lack-luster economy.

CounterWatch™ is that right product !
