Common Questions

Does this feeder work for helping cats eat slower?

It may work for some cats, but many cats refuse to eat from it.

Highlighted Reviews

"Our cats are both foodies and like to eat FAST. When these came I originally didn't want to try them because they hold only 1/2 of the wet food I typically feed the cats, but when I got past that there's been no more cat vomit because they ate too fast."

— Jenny

"I got this to see if we could get Sammy to slow down on eating. He hates this dish, won’t eat from it and bullied the other cats away from their food."

Bottom Line

Due to the high failure rate with picky cats and cleaning issues, consider alternatives if your cat is particular about eating.
