CatGuru Cat Bowls, Whisker Friendly Food Bowl for Indoor Cats, Reliefs Whisker Fatigue, Wide Kitten Dish, Non Slip Pet Dishes, Shallow Pet Plates (Marshmallow, (Pack of 2))

I apparently missed it on the Amazon page, but in the box containing the bowls was a small information card. My cat somehow doesn't know how to, or doesn't like to use her teeth to pick up food. She just licks (dry) pieces of food until they wind up in her mouth. Then she chews. Oh she'll bite things like rubber toys, or my fingers every so often, but licks food. I bought these bowls mostly because of the ridges around the sides. I figured they would help keep food from ending up on the floor. Then I learned about "whisker fatigue," which I'd never heard of. These bowls are really well made! I had thought about another type of raised bowl that's tiled and a partially enclosed sphere. Then I saw one at Walmart and it's just too small. I also bought the little table because this little lady is 14 years old, and although she's running all over the place, I figure she could use a break on the whiskers, and likely also having to always bend down to eat. She seems to like the whole system! The first thing I did was wash out the new bowls, then transferred the food from her main bowl. I was astonished to see just how much food I've been laying out each day! I don't know cats, and so we just used a small plastic bowl. It looked very small, and I'd pour out maybe 1/3 of the bowls for her dry food. (She also gets actual nourishment from other foods.) What I'd thought was a small amount turned out to be massive! Then I read the little insert in the box. Cat Guru points out that the design of these bowls provides room for 1 day worth of food, to help with weight management! Holy Cow! I apparently have been putting out three days worth of food! I've also been aware of the cost of all this food, being on a tight budget myself! Wow! The verdict? Excellent bowls! The little ridges help keep food in the bowl, sliding back down the sides after she licks at, it sending up those sides. It also allows her little face into the bowl so she can actually pick up food or treats directly. Maybe she does know how to use her teeth, but couldn't get her mouth all in the previous bowls. They're nice and solid, and don't slide around on the floor or on the little table. Very well made, and this little kitten had no problem at all taking to each bowl right away. Now I'll see how much longer a single bag of dry food actually lasts! And BTW; when you look down into the bowl from the top, it looks like a bullseye target. It's entirely easy to see that filling the center (smallest) circle with food will a) be plenty, and b) work as a visual measuring "cup." Perfect!

LIFESAVER! Loveee that they're dish washable. I put them on top rack and they've held up so well - literally such nice quality. I love the design of it with the rubber at the bottom and of course the low bowl design helps my kitty so much. And the pink is so cute. Highlyyy recommend!! getting a pack of 2 is perfect too - so you only have to wash in dishwasher at night. only thing I would change is I wish it was microwave safe because sometimes I heat her food for like 5-10 seconds but yeah.

I love these. I have alway strive to use ceramic or stainless steel for my cat food and water dishes (germs and odors become embedded in porous plastic materials), but I didn't have good options for the wet food. My other issues were that I wanted something slightly elevated, something that wouldn't slide across the floor, and I needed FOUR small dishes in order to feed each of my cats their canned cat food simultaneously. These criterion were making other options I considered ridiculously expensive! Then I saw these and thought, OK, they aren't ceramic or steel, but melamine might be an acceptable option. Because they came in a two-pack and the price was reasonable, I decided to give it a try, or rather, Santa Claws decided to bring them for Christmas. I am so glad I decided to give them a chance. The material is perfect— it is so easy to clean and will be incredibly durable. As shown in one of the photos, each dish has a little cut-out on one side, so it is easy to lick the up and hold on to them. The rim of the bottom of the dishes has a black, rubber-type material to keep them from sliding on the floor and so they won't scratch the floor. They don't rise very much off the floor, but my cats seem to think it's the perfect height: for the ones who like to crouch while they eat, they still can, but if they don't want to bend their legs, they don't have to. At first sight, I didn't think the ridges in the dish were pronounced enough to be efficient, but they actually work very well. With the exception of my youngest cat who seems to like imitating a hog at a trough sometimes, my cats no longer have bits of their food all over the floor; instead, they are more easily able to eat it from the dish. I think even if price was no option, I would not choose a different kind of dish, these are perfect.

These are super. Bought 3 (we have 3 cats) and have used them for a while now. The cats enjoy eating from them AND us humans love the convenience and ease of them. 1. They are made of a plastic that is easy to clean (and does not shatter when dropped.) 2. They have a little curve in one side of the base which makes it easy to pick them up off the floor. 3. We bought the cream color and they look great. 4. We have confidence that our cats are having no whisker stress from a poorly planned cat bowl. 5. Have used these for months (feeding wet food) and they still look brand new. Honestly I did not think these would make enough of a difference to matter, but they really do. I would definitely buy them again. So happy we chose these.

This bowl is shallow enough that my cat’s whiskers aren’t constantly brushing against the sides, which makes a noticeable difference during feeding time. At the same time, it still holds both food and water well without spilling over. The bowl feels sturdy and well-made, and it’s very easy to clean. I also like the slight groove design. It’s not perfect, but it definitely helps keep food from sliding out of the bowl compared to a completely flat surface. Overall, a simple but well-designed bowl that works exactly as intended.

Für meine Katzen sind das die besten Näpfe.

Llevo tiempo buscando platos buenos para mis gatos y estos de CatGuru son una maravilla. El diseño es bajito y ancho, justo lo que necesitan para no rozarse los bigotes ni empujar la comida fuera. Además, la base es antideslizante y se limpian en un momento, tanto a mano como en el lavavajillas. Desde que los uso, mi gato come mucho más tranquilo y sin dejar restos. Son bonitos, prácticos y de calidad. ¡Totalmente recomendados!

Los cuencos aparecen como en la foto, son de un buen material y son fáciles de limpiar. El problema es que mis gatos, mientras comen, tiran más pienso de lo que logran comer del cuenco. He reducido la cantidad de pienso que pongo en el cuenco, pero el problema persiste. Un poco una decepción.

They are so excited to try their new bowls.

I have switched to these cat bowls for all 3 of my cats. Easy to clean . Cats like the elevated bowls
