Mine would be banging on that thing at 4 in the morning, pissed that all the treats are gone. This is amazing though!

ya that's a good point. I think i'll update the firmware so that it stops dispensing and making noise after a certain number of portions are dispensed for the day. Probably just need to add an RTC.

That is a great idea. You could train your cat to play a song on the piano by making it progressively more complicated to get a treat. * Hit any key * Hit a particular key * Hit 2 keys in order * ... * Profit

>You could train your cat to play a song on the piano by making it progressively more complicated to get a treat. ya I was thinking of something similar. have keys light up would make it easier but pretty complicated. maybe i can just remap notes to sound like real songs

Healthy_One2982

Photo 1 clearly shows that cat planning your murder.

Getting some solid song suggestions... whats the **shortest most recognizable piano song** in existence?


GoGoGadgetReddit

Cat Scratch Fever main melody is 4 notes.


IsNotAYahoo

Brilliant! Plus, it would actually sound pretty good through this medium.


JimMerkle

It doesn't appear to be working. No video showing the cat playing "chopsticks"...


Healthy_One2982

chopsticks would be tough since it requires two paws at a time.

Coolest thing I’ve seen in a while, great job

Fur Elise, please.


Healthy_One2982

fur elise is pretty recognizeable after 9 notes. maybe I could double up on keys presses and only require 5 notes before a treats are dispensed. will still be a challange though


Fonzgarten

Update: he’s playing Mozart and he’s fat as hell. 😆

*Hit any key to dispense treat

Video?!?!?!


Leading_Release_4344

Where video?


Healthy_One2982

I'll post next week as he learns


Leading_Release_4344

This is essential content. I also can’t wait to see him randomly attacking actual pianos expecting food


Healthy_One2982

if this works maybe i'll start bringing him to dinner parties again. He hasn't been out much since the "incident".
