Our Story: From Frustrated Cat Owners to AI Innovators

Every great innovation starts with a problem. Ours started with two cats who loved bringing "gifts" home.

The Problem That Started It All

It was 3 AM when we first realized we needed a solution. Yuki, our adventurous tabby, had just deposited a very much alive mouse in our bedroom. This wasn't the first time, and we knew it wouldn't be the last.

Like many cat owners, we loved giving our cats the freedom to explore outdoors. But the constant "presents" of mice, birds, and occasionally more exotic prey were becoming a serious problem. We tried everything - bells on collars, training, even keeping them indoors at night. Nothing worked.

That's when we realized: what if we could use technology to solve this age-old problem? What if we could give cats their freedom while keeping unwanted guests out of our homes?

The Journey to AI-Powered Innovation

We started with a simple idea: use computer vision to detect when a cat is carrying something. But as we dove deeper into the technology, we discovered something fascinating - we could do so much more.

Our research led us to groundbreaking veterinary studies on feline pain detection and emotional states. We realized that every time our cats passed through the door, we had an opportunity to check on their wellbeing.

Three Core AI Capabilities

AI Emotion Analysis: Understanding your cat's emotional state through facial expressions and body language, helping you recognize stress, anxiety, or contentment.

AI Pain Detection: Based on the scientifically validated Feline Grimace Scale (FGS), our system can identify signs of discomfort or pain, alerting you to potential health issues early.

AI Object Interception: The original problem solver - detecting and preventing prey, toys, and unwanted objects from entering your home.

Built by Cat Lovers, for Cat Lovers

Every feature in MyCatsHome has been tested extensively by our own cats, Yuki and Yumi. They've been our toughest critics and most valuable testers. If it doesn't work for them, it doesn't make it into the product.

Today, MyCatsHome is more than just a cat door - it's a comprehensive health and wellness monitoring system that happens to also keep your home clean. We're proud to help thousands of cat owners across Europe give their cats freedom while maintaining peace of mind.
