Fortunately, each time, he was saved in time thanks to the surgery performed by the vet.
However, his caring lover wanted to create a system to check if he would defecate in the litter box. For this, I used Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology.

Likewise, the software is able to determine if your cat has urinated and/or defecatered.
