Neater Feeder: "Spoil the Pet, Spare the Floor"

The Neater Feeder is designed with protective walls to contain splashes and spills.  It holds spilled food in and flows spilled water down to a lower reservoir that can safely hold more than an entire bowlful, keeping water off the floor ‘til you dispose of it.

Pros:  I cannot say enough good things about this product!

• Sturdy, attractive design with stainless steel bowls.
• Dishwasher safe.  Made in the USA from recyclable polypropylene plastic.
• Elevated feeding is good for digestion and joints, and helps keep things sanitary.
• No need to clean the floors after each meal or drink.
• Passersby or playing pets can’t accidently knock or kick it over.
• Can be used reliably on carpeted or hardwood floors.

Cons:  While it can be recycled, it is not made from recycled materials.
