Materials :
MDP- Pros: More affordable compared to acrylic. Smooth surface Uniform density, making it easier to work with and less prone to warping. Can be painted or laminated for aesthetic purposes. Cons: Less durable than plywood, can get damaged from moisture
Acrylic - Pros: Transparent and visually appealing, durable and resistant to scratches, not heavy, easy to clean. Cons: More expensive compared to MDP and plywood. Can crack if not handled carefully. Limited color options compared to MDP or plywood since you cant paint wood.
Plywood - Pros: Strong and durable, more affordable than acrylic,
can be stained or painted for customization. Cons: Grain pattern might not look good on some designs.

Pet Breeders
This product will be especially useful to pet breeders who have lots of dogs or cats and can't single handedly feed all of them
Environment
Will be around animals, so there should not be any dangerous parts that can hurt them on the outside of the product.
Mostly used indoor, so we don't have to worry about making it waterproof incase of rain. Also the temperature won't be extreme so the material and mechanisms won't be affected.
Energy
Batteries - Easiest to make, more cost
Chargeable - Best choice, can also be plugged in 24/7 when away for too long.
