In Istanbul, Turkey, there are vending machines that dispense pet food to help feed stray animals while encouraging the public to recycle plastic bottles. This ingenious idea comes from the Turkish company Pugedon, which, according to their website, was founded in 2014 as a social responsibility project. The dispensers are called “mamamatiks,” which translates roughly to “vending machines for pets.”
Here’s how these “mamamatiks” work: The vending machine allows people to release food for the city’s stray cats and dogs by recycling a plastic bottle. Every time someone drops a plastic bottle into the deposit slot, it releases food for animals. The vending machine also has space for people to empty out their water bottles for the animals to drink.
