Our bowl works pretty well, and is not tracking our data!
Misread as Pelletburo, now sad there’s no pet feeder called that
Cat no potato. Only cold.
Your cat’s data belongs to the people, comrade!
I actually got the feeder in the thumbail, but that one isn’t smart. Or at least the model I have isn’t, maybe they added it in the past 2 years. I can recommend it, I guess watch out to get one that is not smart. When I decided on it I explicitly decided against various others that boasted control via a phone app.
Honestly, if you have the money, just get a Superfeeder. I have 2 of them for my cats and I love them.
Basically, they’re like an enterprise version of a consumer grade cat feeder. Completely no nonsense, all physical adjustments, and super customizable. I have them hooked up to my home assistant install (via smart plugs) to be able to better control when the cats get fed (because the little piggies would over eat if I let them) and ensure the automations run as expected (which is great for those with pet anxiety). I’ve had mine for 4 years (and 2 sets of kitties) now, and it’s a breeze to change settings when you have to change foods, if a bit fiddly to dial in how much you’re giving them.
I am happy with what I have but thanks for the recommendation!
Horrors……
