Alarm.com: Using Alarm.Com Cameras to Watch a Pet

Hi, my name is Raissa, and I'm on the product management team at Alarm.com. One cool way that I use my Alarm.com system is to keep an eye on my baby hedgehog, Kiwi, at home. So this is Kiwi, my baby hedgehog. I got her about a month ago, and she's two months old now. I love her to pieces, and I love being able to see what she's doing. My favorite thing about using my Alarm.com system for her is that I can check in for her during the day and see that she's safe and that she's eating, and she's sleeping. I also have video motion detection set up inside of her cage so that I can know when she's awake during the day and moving around, and I will get a notification on my phone. Another fun thing is that Kiwi is a nocturnal animal, so I can use the night vision feature on my Alarm.com camera to go back and see what she was doing at night. So, to set up video motion detection on Kiwi's cage, I just went to the video tab on the Alarm.com website. And then under camera settings, I clicked on video motion detection and from then on I could adjust the settings and even create custom schedules for when I'm alerted about Kiwi's activity.
