Welcome to Mount Kibble Television
A 24x7 video channel featuring clips of the famous cats from the Hello Street Cat feeders in China, brought to you by meow.camera.
Mount Kibble TV (MKTV) was launched in January 2025 (and relaunched in December the same year) and consists of video clips taken from the meow.camera site, saved and uploaded here by Vijay Shah from his special archives. MKTV allows you to see interesting moments of silly kitties eating to their heart's pleasure and is great for feeding your feline thirst or when you want to relax or pass some time. See famous street cats like Mr. Fresh, Ms. Fluff, and Cow Lily, as well as many other cute cattos, doggos and assorted wildlife that visit the feeders run by Hello Street Cat in China. You can watch the cats at your leisure as well as view clips at random and even in glorious fullscreen. Mount Kibble TV was originally a YouTube channel launched by the site creator, which failed to get off the ground, so the name and logo were repurposed for this project. Vijay is from Ilford, England, UK, and is an amateur programmer and friend of kitties, who's also the star behind Vijay's Virtual Vibes and Hello Street Cat Central, the one-stop shop for everything HSC.
HELLO STREET CAT:
Hello Street Cat, also known as Jiemao (哈啰街猫), is an app developed by Guangxi Hachong Network Technology Co., Ltd. and launched in April 2023. The app links together a network of more than 21,000 smart cat feeders distributed across the major cities of China, including Shanghai, Beijing, and Foshan. Users can watch the cats in real-time and donate money to provide cat biscuits/kibble and freeze-dried chicken pieces to help nourish stray cats, who face a daily struggle for survival. The feeders are managed by 'cat guardians', caretakers who look after the cats and help maintain the feeder. To learn more about Hello Street Cat and the many animals that frequent the feeders, visit the official StreetCatWiki site.
MEOW.CAMERA:
meow.camera is a fanmade site streaming live the Hello Street Cat feeder cameras. It came online in early 2024 and is a project by jj and wukko, co-founders of the software agency "imput". meow.cam, as the English-speaking fandom call it, allows you to view feeders live from three different angles. It has the ability to download video clips and images of any visiting cats. You can also search by feeder name and share links to feeders with the community. Check it out today: meow.camera.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Mount Kibble TV is designed to be simple to use. At the right of the page is a series of buttons. The light green 🔀 button allows you to play a random clip from the MKTV archive. The light blue 🔁 button replays the current clip. The black button with the white meow.camera (cat face doodle) logo lets you open the feeder the clip came from direct on the meow.camera website. The last button with Mr. Shock's face is a link to StreetCatWiki, the official community wiki pages for the Hello Street Cat felines.
If you move your cursor to the bottom of the video you will find inbuilt playback controls. Here there is a play/pause button, video timeline, volume control, fullscreen button, and a hamburger menu. The menu enables downloading the current played clip, changing the playback speed and picture-in-picture functionality, so you can watch MKTV while browsing other sites.
The site also has a textbox that appears at the beginning of every video, showing the Mandarin Chinese and English names of the feeder and the time and date of the clip's creation. The date and time of the clip shown is generated using the handy "Meow.camera file checker" from Streetcat Identifier. The site is powered by a JSON database and the clips are stored on catbox.moe to save on storage space and costs.
