Pomodoro timer for Chrome
A focus timer with a pet who keeps quiet.
Start a focus session from the Petiction button and your pets settle down for a nap while you work. When time’s up, one walks over with a break card, a stretch and a nudge to drink some water. Then it’s ready for another round when you are.

Why a Pomodoro timer with a pet?
The Pomodoro technique works because it makes focus feel finite: one short block, then a real break. The hard part is sticking to the breaks. A timer that beeps is easy to dismiss. A small cat who walks over, stretches and reminds you to drink some water is much harder to ignore.
Petiction’s focus timer lives in the browser you already work in, so there’s no extra app or tab to manage, and it works on every website.
FAQ
Focus timer: questions, answered
How long are focus sessions?
Pick 15, 25 or 50 minutes. 25 minutes with a 5 minute break is the classic Pomodoro rhythm, and you can choose a 5 or 10 minute break.
What do the pets do while I focus?
They go quiet. Your pet stops asking for attention, naps, and won’t bring friend notes until the session ends. A small chip in the corner shows the time left, and clicking it lets you stop early.
What happens when the timer ends?
Your pet walks over with a card: take a break, keep focusing, or finish for the day. When the break is over, it asks if you’re ready for another round. If Chrome isn’t in front, you get a normal notification.
Can it remind me to drink water?
Yes. Water reminders come every 30, 45, 60 or 90 minutes, and your pet keeps count of the glasses you’ve had today. Turn them off any time.
Is the focus timer free?
Yes, on every plan. Finishing a focus session also ticks off a daily goal, which fills your pet’s energy for an adventure.
