Litter-Robot is an automatically cleaning cat litter box, which has an app and is connect to the internet. It works with IFTTT, SmartThings and Home Assistant, would be great if there was to be an app for Homey. For instance, get a notification when the litter-robot is full, or trigger a flow when a cat has gone to the box (I would trigger my air purifier to work harder for 5-10 mins when a cat has been on the box for example).

Below is exactly the email I sent to whisker, you could also send a similar email > Beste, > > thuis draait mijn slimmen huis op Athom Homey, dat is het 1na grootste smart home hub/platform, > > Echter staat jullie kattenbakken er niet tussen om samen te werken met hun systeem. > Na wat onderzoek op internet schijnt het dat er veel vraag naar is maar dat jullie dat nog niet door hebben. zie bijlagen onder aan de mail > > Er is al vraag naar sinds oktober 2021 zover ik kan zien, > > het is nu nog interessanter omdat Homey ook een dashboard heeft sinds kort. > > Daar zou je dan de status van de katten/kattenbakken kunnen zien en bedienen. > > Het schijnt dat de broncode al gebruikt wordt voor home assistent, dus het lijkt me niet heel veel werk te zijn voor Athom. > Hopelijk willen jullie in contact gaan met hun om te kijken wat er mogelijk is. > Contact gegevens van athom staat onder aan deze mail. > > ze staan voor alles open > > ik hoor graag van wat hier van mogelijk is. > > mvg Rick Delput > **[Het Talks with Homey Programma](https://homey.app/nl-nl/wiki/het-talks-with-homey-programma/)** ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/4/d/4dffa3a5ca574124edde9c42d8caa0066fa6990c.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/a/ea361c540105c8699940ca0d837d7de76cc6dba3.png) ---

No, there hasn’t been any progress and Whiskers seems to be unwilling to help speed this along as I can’t find any sign of an app being made for Homey. Maybe now the baby Homey Pro will come to the US first they will be more inclined. ---

Hi @phusebox - as mentioned in the podcast, we recently got in touch with Whisker, and they’re now exploring the possibility of building an official integration with Homey. Since they kindly sent over a sample, and I’ve always wanted to try building a Homey App myself, I figured this was the perfect opportunity. Using the reverse-engineered API from the [pylitterbot library](https://github.com/natekspencer/pylitterbot), I’ve put together a Whisker App for Homey that’s currently in testing. You can check it out [here](https://homey.app/a/com.whisker/test/). Would love to hear your thoughts! I’ll also post a dedicated forum thread soon. Cheers! 😺 ---

I seem to miss notifications from the Homey community so just accidentally stumbled upon your post. Will install the app immediately.
