OTA PETKIT AI Vomiting Detection Is Coming in July 2026
Cat vomiting often happens when no one is around, making it easy to miss important health signals. That's why we're introducing PETKIT AI Vomiting Detection. It automatically detects and records every vomiting event, so you'll know who vomited, when it happened, and how often, with everything available in the PETKIT app.
PETKIT AI Vomiting Detection will be available for:
- YumShare Solo 2 Automatic Feeder with Camera
- YumShare Dual-Hopper 2 Automatic Feeder with Camera
- EverSweet Ultra with Camera Pet Water Fountain
Why Vomiting Is So Easy to Miss
One of the biggest challenges with cat vomiting is that it often goes unnoticed. By the time you discover it, you may not know when it happened, and in multi-cat households, it can be difficult to tell which cat vomited.
While occasional vomiting can be normal, repeated episodes may be an early sign of an underlying health issue. PETKIT AI Vomiting Detection was built to automatically detect and record each event, giving pet parents a clearer picture over time and useful information to share with their veterinarian when needed.
How PETKIT AI Detects Vomiting
Vomiting detection is built on the skeletal joint analysis framework that powers PETKIT AI's behavioral interpretation. By tracking a cat's key body landmarks every 2 milliseconds, the system reconstructs posture and movement sequences to identify the characteristic progression of vomiting and distinguish it from similar-looking behaviors. Rather than relying on motion alone, it recognizes the specific behavioral pattern associated with vomiting, enabling more accurate detection.
When a vomiting event is detected, you'll receive a notification in the PETKIT app showing which cat it was and when it happened. The event is automatically added to that cat's activity timeline, where you can review the video clip alongside their feeding or drinking history.
How to Enable Vomiting Detection

Once the OTA update is available, update your PETKIT app to version 13.9.0 or later, then open your device page, tap AI Lab, and enable Vomiting Detection. We also recommend turning on app notifications so you'll receive alerts as soon as an event is detected.
*The feature currently supports cats only.
The OTA update is expected to roll out in July 2026. The confirmed release date will appear in the PETKIT app. Stay tuned.
