🐶 🐱 While traditionally placed at ground level, there are several benefits for cats when their food and water bowls are lifted. If you place a dog bowl at the right height for a dog, it can maintain proper posture. When the head is held over the stomach, the food moves through the digestive tract more efficiently. When the bowls are at the right height for cats, the leg joints and neck are also less strain. Perfect height for maximum comfort when eating.
