Petcube to start shipping its crowdfunded pet camera in time for Christmas

By Andrii Degeler / November 18, 2014

Kickstarter-backed Ukrainian startup Petcube has announced the beginning of shipments of its combined HD webcam, speaker and laser pointer that lets pet owners play with their furry (or sometimes hairless) friends remotely. Starting from today, the device is available for order on Amazon, Fab.com, and the startup’s own website for $199.

“The first run of shipment is pretty big, much bigger than the number of pre-orders on Kickstarter,” Petcube CEO Yaroslav Azhnyuk told The Next Web.
