ABOUT US

Wireless Whiskers® is the brainchild of entrepreneur and engineer Steve Whelan, founder of Encaya Corporation. Formerly a senior executive with Cypress Semiconductor, a muti-billion dollar Silicon Valley firm, he has years of experience with both large and start-up companies in high-tech. One of his cherished cats, Kota, had become extremely overweight.

Attempts to cut back her food were futile. With 3 cats, the wily Kota Kitty had no problem stealing the other cats’ food. (As an ex-shelter animal, she was formidable… fine cat!). Veterinarians suggested putting the thin cat’s food in an elevated place, where the fat cat could not reach. But Kota, despite her portliness, climbed like a tiger! Others suggested feeding each cat alone by shutting them in separate rooms every meal time…. Please!

Wireless Whiskers® has more features and control than any other pet feeder available. This amazing product not only solved Kota’s problem, it elegantly eliminates most other dietary and behavioral problems by combining AI and RFID technologies into a powerful feeding system. The feeder learns each individual pet’s behavior and automatically sets their separate allowances. It will even alert you if any pet is underfeeding and prevent them from overeating or gorging. Our company and Kota Kitty proudly invite you to the exciting new world of the AutoDiet Feeder!

 It was high time for some technology, and thanks to the inspiration of Kota Kitty, Wireless Whiskers® was created. Our company has many firsts since we introduced the World’s first RFID pet feeder in 2012. We have the only feeder designed to control seperate allowances and food types for MULTIPLE pets. The only feeder that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to set each pet’s allowance. No more messing around with cups or ounces. You can even put specific pets on individual diets, on the SAME feeder. Once set, you are out of the feeding cycle forever! Our incredible feeder manages your pets’ allowances and consumption, so you don’t have to.

Electronic pet feeders on the market do not work well. Though traditional feeders periodically dispense a measured amount of food, they do not control which pet can eat the food or how much. You guess it – Kota got most of it, while the other cats went hungry. After a bit of research, Steve quickly found that this is a surprisingly common problem. Overweight and obesity in pets has become widespread in America. No wonder, figuring out how much your pets should eat is tricky. In the today’s busy world, people are often not home most of the time, never mind measuring out different allowances or food types.
