Temptations Gives Our Cats A Voice with CatterBox: The World's First Talking Collar

Temptations gives our cats a voice with Catterbox, created by London ad agency adam&eveDDB. The Catterbox is the work of the new Temptations Lab, a scientific-sounding "research workstream dedicated to the future of fun times with your cat," according to the Mars brand.

Studies have shown that adult cats meow when talking to humans, not to each other. We’ve analysed these cat sounds and created a program that detects a cat’s meow and matches it to a human voice. We then put this technology inside a sleek 3D printed collar which connects seamlessly to our app where you can choose your cat’s new voice.

OUR MISSION -We set up The Temptations LabTM in 2015 in order to inject some serious fun into cats’ lives.
For our first project we’ve set out to use the very latest technology to get to know them better. We believe that if people understood cats better they’d see just how awesome they really are.
