Mella Home Smart Pet Thermometer

The Mella Home Thermometer is the first ever to measure pet temperature accurately under the foreleg! Using machine learning, Mella measures temp in under 15 seconds. Use Mella for your dog or cat. Pair with our iOS or Android app to share with your vet in real-time

Mella, a Chicago-based startup, is building an ecosystem of health monitoring solutions for veterinarians and pet parents, starting with the first-ever accurate axillary thermometer, followed by a body fat analyzer, pulse oximeter, and more. Preventative tools are now accessible, allowing pets to live longer, happier lives.

The Mella Home, designed for pet parents to use in-home and outdoors, includes a mobile app, which pairs the device with a mobile phone. By placing the device under the foreleg or hindleg, Mella tracks accurate axillary temperature. The device takes the body temperature and displays the result within approximately 10-15 seconds. The Mella Home sends data automatically recorded on the smartphone and can be exported and sent to the vet, or shown to the vet in real-time via telehealth.

Temperature range —> 35-45 celsius or 95-113 Fahrenheit
