About
Whisker is a built-in integration that connects Home Assistant to Whisker litter boxes and pet feeders through the vendor's cloud. It signs in with the email address and password of a Whisker account, and setup is done in the UI. The litter box appears as a vacuum, with buttons to reset it, reset the waste drawer and change the filter, plus a button to give a snack. Sensors report values such as litter level, food level, pet weight, last and next feeding, and the next filter replacement. Binary sensors show states like bonnet removed, drawer removed, laser dirty and sleep mode. Sleep mode can be scheduled per day with switches and time entities, and an action sets the sleep mode and start time. Other controls cover the night light, panel brightness, gravity mode, panel lockout and meal insert size, and new devices are added automatically.
