    This is actually a good video that demonstrates how a seemingly innocent product can end up being life threatening without proper QA.

    Also a tip for startups, pet owners are willing to pay premium for convenience and their pets health, and the market is huge for automatic litterboxes, pet feeders, grooming etc.
