PETKIT Raised Dog Cat Food Bowl 304 Stainless Steel, Elevated Pet Food and Water Bowl Dishes, Elevated Cat Bowls, Non-Slip Tilted Cat Bowl No Spill

A simple but sophisticated food bowl that is worth the price
I am a fan of PetKit products: they cost more, but the engineering design and quality are well worth it. For example, PetKit’s stainless water fountain is easily ten times easier to clean and the water filtration is superb, as opposed to a cheaper, all plastic model I initially bought. The price is high, but it’s a game changer.
For reference, we have 5 cats: one 12, two 4 year olds, and 2 kittens. When offered a chance to try this bowl system, I accepted, as my plastic two bowl molded one-piece cheapie thing had gotten pretty beat up, and to be honest, wasn’t easy to clean anymore.
I’ve used this for a little less than a week, and I can recommend it for all cats. Here’s what I found:
1.) Quality: up to PetKit’s higher standards. Sturdy solid plastic frame, well-turned bowls with no finishing defects. There was a little dust on the frame, probably from packaging: easily wiped off, although I always do a quick wash on new food containers for cats anyway. (Not for mine, though, go figure!)
2.) Size: the platform is substantial but not overwhelming. It’s not dainty, and neither are my cats. The size actually catches most spills. It has a small lip around the edge of the plastic base that prevents most dry food from flying on the rest of the floor. Tiny Wet food particles will stick to the plastic as much as any other platform, so no difference there. The larger size may help the four rubber pads on the bottom keep their grip. And these pads aren’t the cheap kind that fall off.
3.) Bowl size and design. The bowls are a little larger than other bowls, having a more rounded base than the typical flat base. Because of the angle option, this meant I was able to use the usual portion size and not have it spill out. Yay!
4.) How the angle is achieved: so this is kind of cool. Both bowls are built like stand-mixer bowls: put the small “foot” underneath the bowl into the base’s hole and give a 1/4 turn and it’s “locked” in. Untwisting is easy for those of us with opposable thumbs, not cats. Even better, there are TWO settings! There is a second hole just below and overlapping with the first (so it looks like a figure 8, or a Venn Diagram), that can be used to set the bowls FLAT/LEVEL. That’s just cool. I used the flat for water and the angle for food, just for testing purposes, and no problems of uneven weight, spills, etc.
5.) Effects of the angle: so I’d be fine recommending this system if it were just flat, so the angle is an added bonus. I am no vet and my cats’ digestion is just fine overall, but the twelve year old regurgitates his food once every month or so, so I got this for him to see if it helps. We’ll see.
Now, there are some kittens born with a condition called Megaesophagus (go online and check this out) and having them eat at a raised angle is supposed to help. Again, I am NOT a vet: I just saw a video where a one-off system was made. This reminds me of it, and if it works, how cool that everyone who needs one can get one! That said, I don’t have a way to test this, but the concept is there.
There is only one problem if this is the concept: my cats swarmed, and the kittens actually ate from the Tall side! Thus defeating the purpose. There’s a common-sense fix to this: put it against against a wall. The older cats knew what was up and ate from the lower side. I just noticed this because I had it out in the middle of the room to see if it moved. My bad. What I’ll do now is make this the 12 year olds exclusive bowl and see if it helps. If I had just two cats, this wouldn’t be a problem.
Even if your cat doesn’t have an extreme medical issue, it’s a very good food bowl system with a lot of options and great quality. If you need a new bowl and want to get something that will last, I’d recommend this.

Great product
Totally pleased with this product. After reading an article that explained how the inevitable scratches in a plastic food bowl can be a source of bacteria if not thoroughly scrubbed out (possibly causing more scratches), and recommending the use of stainless steel bowls instead, it made sense to me. I’ve been using the same double-sided plastic bowl since I rescue my cat 5 years ago, and indeed, it was filled with tiny scratches, most probably caused by chopping up his pate soft food in the bowl with a spoon. The description of this item also made sense. Having the bowls tilted at a 15 degree angle allowed him to eat without bending his neck, allowing the food to go into his stomach easier, and thus helping in digestion. On occasion I’ve come across some throw up that mostly contained solid kibble, almost as if the food was collecting in his throat while eating, and not even getting anywhere close to his stomach. I’ve yet to experience any of this since using the Petkit Cybertail. The base is solidly constructed, and the rubber stoppers in the bottom corners anchor the base nicely to the tile floor. The bowls are easily removed for cleaning with a slight twist, and a slight twist secures them back in place. They can be secured in either the tilted position, or horizontally, if wanted.
Overall, this is a wonderful item. I thought my cat, being picky like most cats, would possibly have issues with adjusting to a new bowl setup. No way. He took to it happily right from the first feeding.

Se ve bonito.

Le bol surélevé PETKIT est une vraie réussite ! Sa hauteur et son inclinaison sont parfaites pour que mon animal mange de manière confortable, sans se pencher trop bas. Le design est non seulement élégant, mais il est aussi bien pensé pour faciliter la digestion et réduire les risques de reflux, surtout pour les animaux plus âgés. L’acier inoxydable est de qualité, facile à nettoyer, et résistant aux éraflures. Mon chat semble beaucoup plus à l’aise, et je vois vraiment la différence avec un bol classique. Un produit pratique, esthétique et ergonomique que je recommande sans hésiter pour le bien-être de nos compagnons !
