ComSaf Cat Food Water Bowl, Wide Shallow Ceramic Cat Dish, Non Spill Pet Bowl,10oz, Pack of 2

I purchased the ceramic bowls to thwart the cat from spilling water. The bowls were not heavy enough to make any difference.

Most of my cat are lickers and not chompers. They keep licking and eventually the food ends up on the floor. This bowl prevents most of the food from spilling over, however, it is not perfect...and I did not expect it to be. The ONE downside is that the food gets stuck under the rim so, if you dont remove the bowl right away (what cat eats all at once?), you will need to soak the bowl before washing. Other than that, the weight of the bowl is nice to keep the bowl from moving and it is wide enough to prevent whisker fatigue.

I got these bowls because I came across reviews talking about whisker fatigue - Ive had cats for the majority of my 60+ years and I had never heard of it before. Apparently cats will hold their whiskers back so they dont touch the sides of the bowl because they use their whiskers for information on their surroundings and they can become sensitive. Anyway, though I didnt notice my cats exhibiting and problems (and what do I know?), I decided to be proactive and try to keep them comfortable. Once we started using these bowls, in addition to placing the bowls where they no longer had to step on a rubber mat (our Chrissy used to like to scratch at her water bowl and using one with straight sides and putting it on a mat saved a lot of cleanup), they started eating directly over the bowl most of the time, which is helping control the usual mess. The bowls have a slightly inward curving lip, which helps the food stay inside the bowl, and the downward sloping sides reduces the real estate for the food, though not by much. Cats generally self-regulate their food intake when they are brought up that way, so we just leave dry food out 24/7 and they nibble thru-out the day and night, though they get a small amount of wet food (canned or pouch) when we change out for fresh dry food at dinnertime. (We did have one cat who gained too much weight, but the high fiber diet the vet put her on worked well to help her lose weight and kept her from gobbling up the food all at once when I tried limiting how much I put out, which only made her vomit it back up. We also got one cat at 2 yrs old who must have been fed like a dog [who dont self-regulate] and although she stayed at the food bowl for much longer periods of time, she eventually stopped doing that and started nibbling like the rest of the cats and lost the excess weight she came to us with; her previous people gave her lots of treats because she was always hungry). Anyway, this bowl is big enough for 24 hrs of food for 2 cats, at least the way my cats eat. We also now have two skinny 4 month old stray kittens who showed up in our backyard and who are eating us out of house and home, but they are starting to slow down after a week of all the food and water they want and a full bowl of dry kitten food lasts them well into the morning after replacement at dinnertime the night before. I expect they will slow down even further as they fatten up again. One of the things I dislike about bowls for cats is that they generally have some silly cat motif, which I can do without and my cats generally take some time getting used to seeing in the bottom of their food or water bowl. We recently got some 8 pasta bowls to use as water dishes, both for volume and the whole silly motif thing. Both are an easy cleanup in the dishwasher. I recently got a few more sets of these bowls since I expect to need (at least) 2 bowls for dry food once they kittens start co-mingling with the adult cats, and I think the pasta bowls are just too deep for food for any of them, now that I know about whisker fatigue. All and all I like these bowls and highly recommend. And as an aside, these bowls were very well packaged for shipping. Really good foam padding. It would be have to be dropped very very hard for them to break.

The bowls are a good shape and size. However they are not anti-slip so its a bad review from me. Our kitten slides it around the floor with ease. Well probably have to buy him a different bowl now. Also these 2 bowls for $30 are not worth it.

I actually bought this for my small dogs because they dont like eating out of metal bowls. These bowls are wider and more shallow than deep. Perfect for my dogs who like to eat together and share their bowl.

I like these very much. A good weight to them. Helpful to my long haired cat with incredibly long whiskers. She is much more comfortable eating now. Highly recommend.

Updated: Kitten is now 16 months old and these are the only bowls she likes. Turns out she did not have whisker fatigue but severe gingivitis (feral kitten problems). Either way, these are her preferred bowls. I dont have any food spills with them. They can be delicate. I lost control drying one and broke it in a two inch drop from my hands to the sink edge. She baulked at the provided bowls with the automatic feeder but accepted the feeder for use when I used these bowls, her favorites. Original: I have a 6 month old kitten (about 6 pounds for size reference) who has already had trouble with whisker fatigue. These bowls were delivered yesterday and Im pleased with them. The bowls are wide and shallow with an edge lip to keep food from slipping out. The kitten is already showing signs of less reluctance for this bowl and isnt dragging her food onto her placemat to eat, as has been her custom. Im hoping this is a long term solution for her. I can see she has plenty of room to eat without her whiskers touching the bowl. The bowls seem sturdy, are a good weight to stay in place, are easy to wash, and nest together for stacking.

My senior kitty loves it. It makes it easier to eat all her canned pate. I love it, as she no longer pushes it onto the floor, which, being a cat, makes it unacceptable for feline consumption.

I have tried a lot of bowls and this one is the best one I found. I use it for my little doge food bowl because they are messy eaters, and this is the best bowl ever. It keeps what ever you put in it in side. I LOVE it!!!

Ive tried 5 different bowls for my 2 cats wet food. They always push the food over the edge & there was a big mess for me to clean up every day. THESE BOWLS WORK! There is a tiny lip on top of the bowl, & when they scarfed up their breakfast today, I watched. They still push the food up to the edge - BUT - it didnt go onto the floor! yay for 1 less mess on my daily cleaning list!
