Slow feeders, water fountains, and everyday bowls for cats

Standard bowls come in stainless steel, ceramic, and plastic — stainless and ceramic are easier to keep hygienic, since plastic scratches and harbours bacteria that can trigger feline acne on the chin. Slow feeders like LickiMat mats spread wet or raw food across a textured surface, extending mealtime from thirty seconds to five or ten minutes. Water fountains (Catit's flower fountain is the common one) keep water aerated and moving, which many cats prefer over still water and which encourages the daily intake that matters most for urinary and kidney health. Automatic feeders handle scheduled dry meals when you're out.
Cats are notoriously bad at drinking enough water — a chronic problem in Australia's warmer months and one that contributes to urinary crystals and kidney issues in older cats. If your cat is on a mostly dry diet, a fountain or a second water station away from the food bowl often bumps intake noticeably. For flat-faced breeds like Persians and Exotics, a shallow wide bowl is easier on the face than a deep narrow one.
How to choose
Start with the bowl material. Stainless steel and ceramic clean up properly in the dishwasher and don't hold odours; skip plastic if your cat has chin acne. Bowl shape matters more than most people think — cats dislike their whiskers touching the sides, so wide shallow dishes suit fussy eaters better than deep narrow ones. Elevated bowls (raised 10-15cm) help senior cats or those with arthritis eat without craning down. For slow feeders, match texture to food type: LickiMat-style mats work for wet, pate, and raw; puzzle balls and maze bowls handle dry kibble. Water fountains need weekly cleaning and filter changes to actually stay cleaner than a topped-up bowl — factor that maintenance in before buying. Automatic feeders should have a battery backup and gravity-fed fallback in case of power loss, and only work with dry food.
Key considerations
Skip plastic bowls
Plastic scratches easily and traps bacteria linked to feline chin acne. Stainless steel and ceramic are easier to keep clean.
Whisker-friendly shape
Wide shallow bowls stop whiskers from touching the sides. Deep narrow dishes can put fussy eaters off their food.
Separate food and water
Cats instinctively avoid drinking near food. A water station in another room often lifts daily water intake noticeably.
Fountains need maintenance
Clean the pump and change filters weekly, or a fountain becomes dirtier than a plain bowl refilled daily.
Slow feeders for gulpers
Cats that vomit right after eating are usually eating too fast. A LickiMat or puzzle bowl fixes it without changing food.
Frequently asked
Do cats really need a water fountain?+
Not need, but many cats drink more from moving water than a still bowl — useful for cats on dry food, older cats, or anyone prone to urinary issues. If your cat already drinks well from a bowl, a fountain adds cleaning work without a real benefit.
Are elevated bowls better for cats?+
For senior cats, arthritic cats, or larger breeds like Maine Coons, yes — raising the bowl 10-15cm reduces the neck bend. For a healthy young cat, standard floor-level bowls are fine.
How often should I clean a cat's water fountain?+
Rinse the bowl and wipe the pump daily, and do a full disassembly clean weekly. Change the filter every two to four weeks depending on the model. Skipping this makes the fountain a slime trap.
Can I use a dog slow feeder for my cat?+
Yes, but the ridges and mazes on dog slow feeders are often too wide to slow a cat down. LickiMats and puzzle bowls designed for cats have finer textures suited to smaller mouths and shorter tongues.
