When the sun is shining, it’s tempting to take an impromptu day trip or mini-break to the seaside.
But pet owners who want a day or two off from their beloved cat or dog need to ensure their pet will still get regular meals.
Now
one entrepreneur has come up with an automatic pet food dispenser to
solve this problem and provide food while owners are away.

One entrepreneur has come up with an automatic
pet food dispenser to provide food while owners are away. Here, a black
labrador waits for his meal to be dispensed by the Wi-Fi connected
PetPal feeder
PETPAL FEATURES
The stainless steel cylinder measures 32inches (81cm) tall and 11inches (28cm) in diameter.
It connects to a Wi-Fi network so owners can feed their pets remotely.
Owners communicate with the feeder using an Android or iOS app.
The feeder dispenses a measured meal five times in 24 hours and can be used manually by pushing the lid if owners are at home.
Users can take a photo and video of their pet using the app. The feeder also has a motion sensor and can take a 30 second video when movement is detected.
When food is low, an email is sent to owners to remind them to top the feeder up.
The feeder claims to be waterproof and raccoon and squirrel-proof.

The
stainless steel cylinder can be programmed to provide meals at certain
times of the day, or a user can remotely control it using an app on
their smartphone or tablet.
Unlike
other automatic feeders, the PetPal can take photos and videos of dogs
and cats and allows absent owners to talk to their pet via a built-in
microphone and speaker.
The
device was invented by Ken Powers in California, who came up with the
idea after he struggled to find someone to feed his two cats when he
went on holiday.
Powers, who works as an electrical engineer, said: ‘I wanted to be able to interact with the cats while I was on vacation.’
‘I have been in the electronics business
for 30 years, so once I committed to making a feeder, I wanted to make
the best feeder on the market.
