• Lead-free, cadmium-free ceramic with a food-grade glaze — provides a smooth surface for daily feeding.
• Raised ridges and a maze pattern slow eating by up to 15x — turn quick meals into a more measured feeding process.

Fast eating can make mealtimes difficult to manage, especially when serving small portions to a small pet. This bowl is made for cats and small dogs, including Boston Terriers, Bichon Frises, Shih Tzus, and Pugs. Its ridged surface adds a puzzle-like element to feeding, while its compact capacity supports portion control.

Is this bowl sized for my small pet?

Yes, the bowl measures 6.25 in (15.9 cm) across and holds 0.6 cups (about 142 mL) of dry food or 12 oz (355 mL) of water. That capacity suits small servings for cats and small dogs such as Boston Terriers, Bichon Frises, Shih Tzus, and Pugs. Compare your pet’s usual meal portion with the bowl’s capacity when choosing it for everyday feeding.

• Made for small pets, including cats and small-breed dogs.
• The compact capacity can help with portion-controlled meals.

How does the maze help slow eating?

Raised ridges and a maze-shaped surface make pets work around the channels to reach their food. The design is intended to encourage a slower, more mindful pace instead of allowing quick, unrestricted mouthfuls. A slower eating routine may help reduce the risks of bloating, choking, and vomiting associated with fast eating, and is designed to support digestion.

• The ridges create an engaging puzzle at mealtime.
• Use it for a more paced feeding routine for a small pet.

What is the bowl made from, and how do I clean it?

The bowl is made from pet-safe, lead-free and cadmium-free ceramic with a smooth, food-grade glazed finish. Its non-porous surface resists bacterial buildup, which can contribute to chin acne and skin irritation. Ceramic bowls are recommended by veterinarians over plastic, and the glazed surface helps food residue rinse away rather than cling. The bowl is dishwasher safe for routine cleaning.

• The ceramic construction avoids the cracking, scratching, and flaking associated with plastic bowls.
• The smooth glaze is made for daily pet-food contact.

Will the bowl stay in place during a meal?

Its non-slip base and low-center-of-gravity design help hold the bowl in place, including when a pet eats enthusiastically. At 1.2 lb (0.54 kg), it weighs four times as much as typical plastic options, adding weight that helps resist tipping. The base is designed to keep the bowl steady on the feeding surface.

• Suitable for serving dry kibble, wet food, or raw diets.
• Microwave-safe ceramic lets you warm a pet’s meal in the bowl.

The vancasso slow feeder is suited to cat owners and small-dog households looking for a ceramic dish that combines portion-conscious capacity with a ridged feeding surface. Its small-pet sizing, maze design, and non-slip base make it a fit for measured meals rather than large-breed portions.
