In followup to my post last year about Coco and the Cat Wheel I finally got around to writing down how it was done, so if anyone out there on the www wants to share the fun with their feline companions, go forth.

Coco has been having lots of fun on the wheel, and is using it every night. My pushover notifications go crazy overnight, and the Xiaomi cat feeder is working overtime. Didn’t take long for her to figure out in our house you have to workout for your dinner.

We have a few roadmap items that need to be added so anyone who wants to chip in with some ideas lets have it.

old post.

PS. Yes I know this is a super simple solution, and I am pretending i am releasing a big software release, but its fun, it’s for Coco, and there are others out there who are less than technical and need help for their Coco’s.
