If you are a homeowner with pets, you may have additional home security concerns because of your pet. The best choice for protecting your family, pet(s), home, and your valuable and sentimental items is to install a monitored home security system. The top home security systems are equipped with motion detectors. A passive infrared motion detector (PIR) is an electronic security device that detects intruders by sensing motion or body heat in the area being protected. Most motion detectors are designed for use when your family is away from home or when no one will be passing through the area covered by the sensor. Many people instantly believe they cannot have pets living in a home with activated motion detectors and sensors, but that is actually completely wrong.
