In July of 2016, Petcube launched a Kickstarter page to fund a new interactive camera that helps you care for your pets even from afar. With a proposed budget of $200,000, the company hoped to launch the Petcube Bites treat dispenser.

Interactive Pet Cameras Help Owners Stay Closer To Their Cats And Dogs

It’s been proven that many pets experience significant separation anxiety when their owners leave them. This accounts for much of the destructive behavior that sometimes happens in a pet owner’s absence. With the Petcube Bites, you can check in on your pet at any time through a simple app that both allows you to practice some positive reinforcement by dispensing treats for good behavior and also provide some comfort in your absence.

It works both ways of course. Thanks to the interactive camera built into the Petcube Bites treat dispenser, you can also cure your own blues if you’re missing your pet while you’re away. It’s also an effective means of alleviating your guilty over having to leave them for extended periods of time. By checking in and giving them at least some kind of attention, you’ll be able to maintain and even bolster a more positive relationship with your pet no matter where you are or how long you have to be there.

This is especially good for pet owners that are currently in the middle of training and are struggling to keep a consistent schedule for it. Repetition and positive reinforcement are key, especially when it comes to training dogs. With the Petcube bites, you can actually continue your routine and reward your pet for obeying any commands you’ve been trying to teach.

The 5 Features That Petcube Bites Provides:

  • 1080p full HD camera with a 4x digital zoom.
  • Night vision and effective performance even in low light conditions.
  • Two way audio, allowing full interaction.
  • Personalized messages can be left when treats are dispensed.
  • Notifications via sound and motion alerts so you can always be sure of the safety of your pet and home alike.

You can even schedule treats to dispense at certain times if you know you won’t be able to check in until later on. By attaching a personal message, you can be sure to continue at least some degree of attention for your pet. There’s also a music library that allows you to play fun sounds that can easily help perk up their mood.

Many More Features and Possibilities

For those of you that love social media, you can also easily take photos of your current live stream through the Petcube app. You might even find that you’re able to get far more natural pet selfies than usual. These can even be set up automatically, and you can also choose your shot more carefully with on the fly cropping functionality if you’re controlling the camera manually. Shorter video clips can also be recorded, allowing you to easily revisit your favorite moments from using the dispenser again and again. If you want to know more, read our full review on Petcube

That really only scratches the surface. Far too many people are dragged away from their dogs and cats so much that it’s impossible to really have any quality time. With the Petcube Bites treat dispenser at your disposal, you can maintain a positive relationship with your pet no matter where you are.
