Abstract

Cats are seen as clean which is making it safe to keep them. With the increased use of technology and a hectic lifestyle, individuals seek emotional bonds that can offer them delight. Cats are loyal and caring, which is why many people choose to adopt them. Cats are like true members of the family, however there are occasions when owner need to leave their cats at home for an extended period. Cats require special care, which is not as easy as it used to be with today's hectic lifestyle. The development of automatic pet feeders aims to simplify pet owners' responsibilities by allowing them to feed their pets anytime and anywhere. The system's core component is IoT-based and built with Raspberry Pi, allowing it to care for their cats at home on its own. The system is coupled with the Pi camera, which allows to shoot pictures over the IOT platform and obtain on-demand footage at house. The SD card is an essential component of the Raspberry Pi, providing internal storage for data. Controls a servo motor to distribute precise amounts of food, reducing wastage and ensuring that cats are properly fed. This system is particularly beneficial for cats, which often require multiple small meals throughout the day. The automated pet feeding system successfully differentiates between the owner's cat which is Lulu, and other stray cats or objects around the feeder with an accuracy of 99.9%. This precision ensures that food is dispensed only for Lulu, reducing wastage, and preventing misuse. This advanced technology ensures that cats receive the care they need, even when their owners are away, combining convenience and peace of mind in pet care.
