_Here comes the help from Arduino. Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, activating a motor, turning on an LED, and many more.

_This is the finished product of the Arduino Toy Project for the Cat, I am using a power bank for the power source.

Roro loves her new Arduino Cat toy, I am happy that she liked it. If you are tired of wasting money on Pet toys like me, I can recommend using Arduino as your robot pet toy replacement
