Highlighted Reviews

— Eli

"Slowed my cat down considerably, the only downside is the gaps that make up the scale design are too thin for her to be able to get all of the food out of it, so some food is wasted every feeding. Other than that, it's cute, durable, and very easily washed even if we forget to clean it right away"

— Elyse

"Unfortunately, my cat started eating the latex dish. So far she seems ok, but I am watching her anxiously. I threw. out the dish immediately. My other cat had to have emergency surgery after eating one of her mice toys."

Bottom Line

An efficient feeding solution for cats, but be cautious about food type and cleanliness to avoid wasting food and Ease of use is good, however some cats may face challenges depending on the density of the food used.
