The Droppi is a device that keeps your pets well-fed, entertained and generally happy while you're away at work. This toy-and-treat-dispensing device is perfect for people who worry about leaving their pets all alone at home.
The Droppi is perfect for pet owners who own more than one pet, as it allows them to program 'play dates' with rope toys, allowing the pets to play with each other. Users can also record messages to be played back to their pets.
The developers of Droppi are running a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for production of their invention. A pledge of $30 will get you one Droppi, though you'll have to pay an additional $11 to have it shipped outside of Australia. The product will be ready to ship in April 2015 if and when the campaign hits its fundraising target.
