Dispenser

For dog owners who treat their pets like children, it can be hard leaving them alone while at work. What if - in the absence of your constant reminders - they forget who is, in fact, a good boy? Furbo is designed to allay these fears by letting you remotely talk to, and feed, your pet.

A new addition to the remote pet care market adds an element of multimedia and social networking to the fun. The Petzi Treat Cam enables pet parents to dispense treats while away from home, see video footage of their pets and talk to them. It will be available in July.

If you've ever worked in film/television production, special events setup or any number of other similar industries, then you're probably familiar with a particularly unlikable task – taping cables down to the floor. The GaffGun is designed to make that job considerably quicker and easier.

An Australian company is entering the growing market of automated dispensers for pets, with a new product called The Droppi. It can dispense a wide array of treats and toys, and allows users to record a message.
