    If you have a cat, you’ve probably wondered what escapades your feline friend gets into when you’re not around.   Jürgen Perthold, a German-American engineer, was similarly curious about where his cat, Mr. Lee, went when he disappeared from his South Carolina home, so Perthold designed a special camera for him to wear.

That’s what a group of British cat lovers have done and the pictures they posted on the internet have sparked a new craze all round the world. The initial inspiration came from physiotherapist Jessica Bavinton, 32, from Islington, North London, who had always wondered where her Burmese cat Sarty disappeared to during the day. She bought the £40 camera - called a CatCam - online, set the timer to...
