Next Steps:

1. For future iterations of the Cat Counter, I would like the LED light to remain illuminated when the cat is outside, and turn off when the Cat comes back inside. This would allow my parents to simply look at the device in order to see if the cat is out, without having to look on the Particle Console, dashboard, or a cellphone.
   
2. I would also like to incorporate a push notification to their phone or a simple app/dashboard they could check to determine if the cat is inside or outside. How they would get the information would depend on whether they would want to receive a notification, or just want to check the status at their own leisur.
3. I would like to iterate on this device, so that it could track multiple cats in one household.
