An automatic throwing machine for pet balls is a device designed to entertain pets by automatically launching balls for them to chase and retrieve. These machines are commonly used for dogs, cats and other small pets as well.
The throwing machine usually consists of a launcher mechanism and a ball compartment. The launcher may be operated by a motor or a spring-loaded mechanism.
Balls are stored in a compartment or a hopper attached to the machine. Some machines can hold multiple balls at once, allowing for continuous play.
