Our verdict
A refrigerated wet-food feeder that keeps up to three meals chilled for as long as 72 hours without ice packs, then dispenses on an app schedule. It is the obvious pick if your cat won't eat kibble, a job none of the dry-food feeders here can do. Expect to pay more than a hopper feeder (PetLibro's UK site has ranged roughly £120 to £180 by model and promotion).
What can Home Assistant control on the PetLibro Polar Wet Food Feeder?
| Control | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Feeding and status | Sensors / buttons (community integration) | Feeder status and manual feed where the integration supports this model |
No official integration; it relies on the same community PetLibro HACS integration as the Granary, which logs into PetLibro's cloud with your account. Unofficial and cloud-dependent, so it can break when PetLibro changes its backend. Check the project's supported-devices list for the Polar before you buy.

Frequently asked questions
- Does the PetLibro Polar Wet Food Feeder work with Home Assistant locally?
- Partly. The PetLibro Polar Wet Food Feeder connects to Home Assistant through a community integration installed through HACS, which relies on the PetLibro cloud. It works in Home Assistant, but commands go via the internet and stop working during an outage of your connection or the PetLibro service.
- Which protocol does the PetLibro Polar Wet Food Feeder use, and do I need a hub?
- The PetLibro Polar Wet Food Feeder uses Wi-Fi. To pair it with Home Assistant you need no hub — it joins your Wi-Fi network directly. PetLibro's own hub is not required when you integrate through a community integration installed through HACS.
