CatCare
Product Design / Concept Design
Design Competition
2007

CatCare is a concept design developed within the “BraunPrize 2007” contest with the main goal of mitigating the excess weight of the majority of house cats. During the design process other important features were thought of and implemented to improve the cat's quality of life. This product is an automated system that uses its scale and the cat’s data introduced into the system, to calculate the correct amount of daily ration the cat should eat. Among other features CatCare can also record and play the owner’s voice for long periods of absence and as well as allows you to download and upload your cat’s information.
