Stainless Steel Cat Bowls

Feeding your feline is an important part of your day. Choosing a wholesome food with flavors and textures your cat loves is enough of a challenge—but which bowl is the best for your hungry pet? Believe it or not, a stainless steel cat water bowl or food bowl can be a real game-changer. Many pet parents love stainless steel cat bowls because of their durability and higher germ resistance. They are typically easy to clean, and they look modern and sleek in practically any living space.

Your pet may benefit from stainless steel non-slip cat bowls, which don’t move around when your cat starts eating. You can also choose a stainless steel water and food bowl set with a stand—called cat diners—that secures the bowls in place and elevates your kitty’s dining experience with style. Plain stainless steel bowls or stainless steel inserts for feeders can typically be cleaned in the dishwasher without wearing down over time.

Of course, in addition to plain dishes, you can also find raised stainless steel cat bowls with fun prints and designs that fit the unique personality of your kitty. Or—to save time during your day—you can select a bowl with a lid, measure out your cat’s calories for the day and remove the cover at mealtimes.

While you should still clean your stainless steel cat bowls periodically, you can worry a little less about germ build-up when you go with steel over plastic.

The potential health benefits don’t stop there. Raised stainless steel cat bowls can make it easier for older cats to eat without straining their neck or needing to bend down. And a stainless steel slow feeder cat bowl is designed to make it more difficult for felines with weight or digestive issues to eat food faster than they should.

Cats—like people—may have their personal preferences when it comes to their eating setup. Some may not like the cold surface of a stainless steel bowl for their food, while others may prefer how cool it keeps the water in their bowl. There could be many reasons why a pet dislikes a bowl—stainless steel or plastic. However, many cats can quickly adapt to a stainless steel bowl without any issues.

Yes. In most cases, stainless steel cat food bowls and water bowls can be cleaned in a dishwasher. Just be careful not to use a harsh dish soap which may damage metal surfaces. When determining the right dishwasher settings for cleaning your pet’s steel bowls, always pay attention to the manufacturer’s instructions.
