PETKIT returns to CES 2026 in Las Vegas to unveil an AI-powered ecosystem themed “AI Ecosystem for Everyday Pet Care,” featuring three devices that integrate via the app to deliver health insights from feeding, drinking, and litter-box data.
PETKIT, a global pet-tech company founded in 2013, operates in more than 50 countries with a focus on data-driven solutions that strengthen the human-animal bond. The company issued this announcement from Los Angeles on January 2, 2026, via PRNewswire. After participating in CES the previous year, PETKIT positions its presence at the event to highlight smart pet care amid displays of giant screens, electric vehicles, and humanoid robots. The lineup shifts from basic automation of feeders, fountains, and litter boxes to a system providing trackable health profiles for pets, similar to human wearables and connected health devices.
The 2026 CES product lineup centers on three flagship devices: EVERSWEET ULTRA, YUMSHARE DAILY FEAST, and PUROBOT CRYSTAL DUO. Each incorporates an AI camera and connects to the PETKIT app, automating routines while collecting data on hydration, nutrition, and litter-box behavior. This integration forms a continuous health picture, enabling owners to detect changes early and discuss them with veterinarians. PETKIT has developed these over more than 13 years of building connected products.
- EVERSWEET ULTRA: This automatic water fountain uses an AI camera with pet facial recognition to track individual drinking habits and generate personalized hydration insights. It features a high-capacity reservoir that supplies up to 14 days of flowing water for a single pet. The design separates fresh water from wastewater, preventing pets from consuming recirculated water and accommodating those with sensitive stomachs. For the first time in PETKIT’s water fountains, the device observes every sip, making it suitable for multi-pet households by distinguishing behaviors per animal.
- YUMSHARE DAILY FEAST: As the first robotic wet-food dispenser from PETKIT, it delivers portion-controlled meals on a schedule and builds eating insights over time. An integrated 1080p, 140-degree wide-angle AI camera enables multi-pet facial recognition. NFC technology tracks freshness, UVC sanitization occurs during each serving cycle, and AI detects leftovers. These features support up to seven days of fully automated wet meals, with each portion maintained within its freshness window and protected from contamination. The device enters a new category as the core of PETKIT’s wet-food-automation platform and provides preventive support for feline urinary health, serving as a future-ready solution for pet-food brands.
- PUROBOT CRYSTAL DUO: This open-top automatic cat litter box offers up to 30 days of scoop-free use combined with health insights via a built-in AI camera. The app sends alerts for runny stool, crying in the litter box, or abnormal pH readings, which signal early potential urinary issues such as infections or bladder stones.
Devices communicate through the PETKIT app to aggregate data into a unified health dashboard. Feeding, drinking, and litter-box information appears in trend charts and daily timelines for each pet. The dashboard organizes data into a health card per cat, displaying trends over time and deviations from usual patterns. Owners access a daily timeline to review specific times and correlate behaviors. For instance, in cases of chronic kidney disease, the system tracks multiple factors simultaneously.
If data indicates a cat drinks more often, uses the litter box more frequently, loses weight, and eats less, these combined signals provide early warnings. Owners gain reference points for veterinarian discussions. The dashboard also monitors chronic conditions, showing whether symptoms stabilize, improve, or worsen. This setup addresses fragmented information and time constraints faced by owners, particularly in urban living with indoor-only cats, multi-cat households, and pets treated as family members.
Cats often act as silent sufferers, with diseases detected late. PETKIT targets pain points like needing early litter-box insights, reliable multi-cat monitoring, and proactive intervention. The ecosystem moves pet care from passive routines to tools for protection, emphasizing urinary health through integrated signals.
Recent industry estimates place the global pet population at around one billion animals. In the United States, roughly two-thirds of households own at least one pet. These figures highlight that feeding, watering, and waste management form core daily routines in hundreds of millions of homes, extending the smart-home narrative.
“CES is where the world looks for the next chapter of smart living,” said W. K. Guo, founder of PETKIT. “CES will always focus on technology that improves human life, but when more than a billion companion animals share our homes, pet care is part of that story as well. We are not only fully automating everyday pet care, we are also turning routines into early health signals for pet parents to act on and adding a new chapter to what smart-home technology can mean.”
PETKIT hosts live product demonstrations and technical walkthroughs at the Venetian Expo, Halls A–D, booth #56342, from January 6 to 9, 2026. Journalists and attendees receive first-hand experiences of the AI-powered ecosystem. Media interviews occur by appointment. More details appear on petkit.com.

PETKIT’s evolution incorporates connected feeders, fountains, and litter boxes into data-driven health insights, entering robotic wet-food feeding for preventive urinary care. The app’s health dashboard compiles daily changes with emphasis on early urinary issues in cats. Each device’s AI enhancements ensure precise tracking: facial recognition in EVERSWEET ULTRA distinguishes drinking per pet, providing insights effortless for multi-pet homes; YUMSHARE DAILY FEAST’s camera, NFC, UVC, and leftover AI enable seven-day automation with freshness control; PUROBOT CRYSTAL DUO’s alerts cover specific urinary precursors like pH shifts or distress behaviors.
The dashboard’s trend charts visualize long-term patterns, while timelines pinpoint onset of changes. For chronic kidney disease management, concurrent monitoring of hydration increase, litter frequency, appetite decline, and weight loss equips owners with data for veterinary alignment. This addresses modern challenges: urban indoor lifestyles limit natural behaviors, multi-cat dynamics complicate observation, and family-level pet integration demands vigilant health tracking.
With over 13 years since founding, PETKIT’s presence spans 50+ countries, integrating AI cameras across devices for ecosystem cohesion. CES 2026 booth activities include in-depth team discussions alongside demos, inviting direct engagement with hydration tracking, wet-food robotics, and litter health signals.
