What it does

  • Bowl-shaped design with center ridges slows eating so your pet takes 10-30 minutes to finish, which stops bloating and vomiting after meals
  • Holds only 0.5-2 handfuls of food, so your pet works with their paws to pull out each piece and eats less food for weight control
  • Turns mealtime into a puzzle game that keeps your cat or small dog mentally busy while they eat slower and safer
  • You can adjust difficulty by adding less food, making it work for weight loss or picky eaters who need more challenge

Your pet stops gulping food and starts eating at a healthy pace. This slow feeder bowl turns a quick meal into a 10-30 minute eating adventure, so your cat or small dog avoids bloating, vomiting, and overeating in one simple bowl.

The design is bowl-shaped with ridges that sink toward the center. Your pet must use their paws to pull out each piece of food one at a time. This slower eating pace helps with weight control and gives their stomach time to signal fullness. You can make it easier or harder by adding more or less food. The less food you put in, the more your pet has to work for every bite.

Perfect for cats and small dogs who eat too fast. Monitor very hyper or aggressive dogs while they use it to make sure they stay safe and comfortable.

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
