I need an automatic wet food cat feeder bc everyone is out of town and my catsitter can only visit once a day, on my way to the last pet store in the area to see if they have one and also steeling myself to the possibility that I will have to rig up a fucking diy raspi servo motor/peltier monstrosity

Perk of going to all the pet stores is looking at all the gimme pigs

Ok taking design recs for the easiest way to open and close a Tupperware container on a timer. I have a basic set of motors and microcontrollers and can duct tape stuff to other stuff, but can't machine or 3d print anything

@jonny Oh no, you're going down the same (unsatisfying) rabbithole that I went down two years ago

@jonny For the record I settled on a design with vacuum food containers that release their vacuum once you press a button on the top, as that would be easiest to motorize

And then the vacuum food containers sold out before I could get one, so I never actually got to try this...
