The multifunctional control assembly includes a multifunctional module and an identification module. The multifunctional module is electrically connected with the identification module. The multifunctional control module includes a control mainboard, a battery, a power switch, a feeding circuit board, a card slot, and a charging connector. The battery, the power switch, the feeding circuit board, the card slot, and the charging connector are electrically connected with the control mainboard.

An apparatus for preparing pet food has a base and a lid. The base is engageable with a container of the pet food and the lid is moveable relative to the base between an open state for allowing engagement and disengagement of the container and a closed state for preventing disengagement. The apparatus includes a scanner for reading a pet food identifier on the container. The scanner is adapted to read the pet food identifier and provide it to a controller. The controller is adapted to obtain food preparation parameters from an external database and to cause the apparatus to then prepare the pet food according thereto.

Pet travel luggage and carriers configured to organize pet essentials for an extended duration are described. The luggage and the carrier include a body, a lid attached to the body at an opening, and a feeding station. The feeding station comprises a flexible fold down flap hinged to an outer edge of a side of the body proximate the bottom side. The flap deploys along a horizontal surface such that an interior surface of the flap receives a removable mat. The removable mat receives a pair of collapsible bowls. The flap is secured in a closed position to an outer surface of the side of the body by a fixation element. The luggage also includes a removable dividing panel that divides a hollow interior of the body into at least two unsymmetrical sections. At least one of the at least two sections receives a pair of stackable containers.

A container of pet food and an apparatus for preparing the pet food are disclosed. The apparatus includes a scanner for reading a pet food identifier on the container. The scanner is adapted to read the pet food identifier and provide it to a controller. The controller is adapted to obtain food preparation parameters from an external database and to cause the apparatus to then prepare the pet food according thereto. The containers has an identically-shaped periphery and the apparatus is adapted to receive that periphery such that each container is properly positioned regardless of the container's volume.

The use of adjustable arms or flaps combined with hook and loop fasteners connect to toys or treat dispensers in different positions to create varying levels of play for all dog types and ages. Adjusting arm connections allows to create different difficulty levels keeps dogs entertained physically and mentally. The adjustable arms create adjustable connections that create new forms of play for varying dog sizes, strengths, and ages.

A computer-implemented method for dynamically managing electronic transactions of pet homing data is disclosed. The method includes receiving a pet selection, sending a confirmation indicating that the pet has been homed, determining whether at least one pet owner profile corresponding to at least one user record exists in a data store, in response to the determining that the at least one pet owner profile does not exist in the data store, creating a new pet owner profile based on the at least one user record, determining whether the at least one pet profile corresponding to at least one pet record exists in the data store, in response to determining that the at least one pet profile does not exist in the data store, creating a new pet profile based on the at least one pet record, and associating the new pet profile with the new pet owner profile.

Systems, methods, and computer code products monitor the behavior, health, and/or characteristics of an animal. In one implementation, the animal is positioned inside a waste container placed on a system that is adapted to determine, record and communicate over a network various animal health parameters. These parameters can be processed to determine trends, statistics and changes of animal physiological functions. The results can be used to access animal health conditions and issue warnings, alarms, messages, and other notifications to designated caretakers. These notifications may be displayed using various devices such as computers and/or mobile devices. Data retrieval and review capability can provide improved understanding of an animal's health conditions and facilitate early illness detection.

Dispensing devices and methods are provided. A dispensing device comprises an opening accessing an insertion path thereof, two opposing surfaces configured to compress a flexible package inserted into the insertion path while moving across the flexible package in two directions, and an opener configured to bend an opening region of the package out of a plane defined by the flexible package and further configured to cut a distal portion of an opening region of the flexible package. A method of dispensing product from a flexible package is also provided.

The invention relates to a pet feeder, in particular, to a feeder having a remote control function, and more specifically to an entertaining feeder. In view of problems such as currently, pet hardly participates in an entire feeding process, so that the need of pet hardly matches manual feeding, and pet cannot obtain a sense of delight and a sense of achievement in the feeding process, an entertaining feeder is provided. Feeder is mainly formed by a feeding body and a controller, where feeding body mainly includes a food container provided with a food leaking hole, a bracket, and a food tray; and the controller mainly includes a control signal transmitter and a controller positioner. By using the controller formed by combining the controller positioner and the control signal transmitter, pet itself can be urged to operate control signal transmitter and trigger a control signal receiver.

The present invention relates to a hollowed ball with an erratic movement for pets formed by a single piece, preferably made from an elastic material that allows the erratic movement during a rotation or rebound displacement due to its interior design. The form and dimensions and dimensions of the ball allows the storage of food in its interior, introducing and dosing such food through openings or hollows placed in the external part of the ball. The ball is structurally formed in its interior by at least two cylindrical sections with continuing radially arched thickness with a sequential projection of horizontally cylindrical truncated steps.
