Neutal nets can definitely identify cats and also tell if it is a black or white cat. But identifing a specific cat might be difficult...

You'll also need the Boston Dynamic dog to go get her.

Not really, human face recognition is quite accurate and humans all look identical in comparison to the diversity of cats and dogs

... ok what approach would you use for that? Let's say you use yolo to detect th bounding box of the cat, but how do you want to identify the cat, based on your sample images?

Re-train https://github.com/davidsandberg/facenet on cats?

Ok. This could work, somebody tried it for dogs (https://github.com/GuillaumeMougeot/DogFaceNet)...

For the problem to solve in the first place, one might use a gps-tracker for pets or something.
