Solution To A Problem

While we're on the road in our Casita we wanted to make sure the A/C didn't quit running. That's especially important when we're in really hot locales like where we are now, Las Vegas, NV. After a lot of research we finally came up with a solution. It's an app for the iPhone and PC called Jumi. It allows you to view your PC's web cam on your iPhone. It took a lot of effort to get it working with our Verizon MiFi 2200 because of port forwarding restrictions on the MiFi. But we finally figured out a solution. Now we can leave the cats in the Casita and check on the temperature simply by viewing our thermometer via the PC's web cam. No more worrying about coming back to baked kitties!

  1. Which reminds me of a quote from you guys years ago that we use ourselves today...."prevent kitty suicides". When you had put up the wood /cardboard/? to block the kitties from accessing the 2nd floor overlook in your house.
    We have a loft in our new house and it does concern us how the kiities love to weave in and out of the railing and tempt fate!
