Priya covers cats and the rapidly growing pet-technology space at Maowsy — from AI smart collars and litter robots to feline behaviour research and indoor enrichment. After seven years as a software engineer working on consumer apps, she made the switch to full-time pet-care writing in 2024 and has been published in regional pet publications across the US, UK, and Australia. She approaches every product review with an engineer’s scepticism and a cat lover’s patience. At home she lives with three cats — a Bengal, a tortoiseshell, and a one-eyed senior tabby — and an aquarium of zebrafish.
