About
YumShare Solo by PETKIT is a smart automatic cat feeder designed to bring peace of mind and connection to pet owners on the go. At its core is an AI-powered wide-angle camera that continuously monitors your cat's activities, automatically classifying captured footage into categories like Feeding, Eating, and Pet Visiting so you can quickly review what matters most. The feeder supports fully customizable feeding schedules with up to 5 portions per meal, enabling precise portion control to combat pet obesity and encourage healthy eating habits. An AI food-level sensor monitors remaining food in the bowl and stops dispensing when a set threshold is reached, ensuring freshness and preventing overfeeding. Two-way audio lets you talk to and hear your cat in real time, while a built-in 940nm infrared LED and high-sensitivity sensor enable clear night vision monitoring. A personalized meal-call feature lets you record a voice message to play at feeding time, helping pets acclimate to the device. For content lovers, the VLOG feature automatically compiles the best pet clips into a shareable video with background music. The companion PETKIT app provides remote control, real-time alerts, timeline browsing, and privacy controls including scheduled camera operation and voice recording toggles. A subscription is required for cloud video storage and some AI features. YumShare Solo is ideal for busy pet owners, frequent travelers, and anyone who wants smarter, more connected pet care at home.
