    The cat needs something to occupy it before feed time

      need to setup a moving laser pointer on another clock 40 minutes before the feed time so he can go stare at that for 4 minutes.

    it would be hilarious is someone made the clock run five minutes late.

      My automatic cat feeder was cheap and runs a few seconds earlier everyday. It’s now a full hour and half ahead of schedule (I never updated it for daylight savings time, I figured by the time the hours are set back I can tune the clock back to the right time)

    I just got the exact same feeder! Like, genuinely ten minutes ago. Except it’s white. Ended up going with this one based on some good reviews and a homeassistant integration.

      In my experience, you can get away with going really cheap for dry feeders though. They really aren’t that complex. I got like the second cheapest one I found on Amazon and it has been working great for the 6 months since I got it.

        I mean, I do think this one was fairly cheap. And home assistant integration was a must for me.

        Looks like a PetLibro product. I have 2 of their dispensers and one of their water fountains and they’re all great.

    I don’t get why people buy these water fountains when the whole point of running water is that it’s freshly produced from a faucet then flushed down a drain. To run it in a circle is the same as leaving it to sit stagnant in a bowl except with extra dust collected from the air. Rig up a constantly dripping faucet and maybe your cat’s kidneys will stop failing after a few years.

      “freshly produced”. You think it’s magic? Do you only drink from “freshly produced” sources as most of it goes down a drain?
