FAQs
Is the Alessi 'Tigrito' Cat Bowl suitable for puppies or kittens?
Yes, the size is appropriate for kittens and small to medium-sized puppies. However, ensure the bowls are adequately filled for their portion needs.
Can I use the bowls for different types of pet food?
Absolutely. The stainless steel bowls are ideal for both dry kibble and wet food, as well as water.
How durable is the thermoplastic resin base?
The thermoplastic resin is designed for durability and resistance to everyday wear and tear. It is food-safe and easy to maintain.
Is the cat tail functional or just decorative?
The cat tail is part of the design and also serves as a subtle ergonomic feature, aiding in lifting and moving the feeder.
Does Alessi offer replacement bowls for the 'Tigrito' feeder?
Specific replacement part availability can vary. It is recommended to contact Alessi customer service or the retailer where the product was purchased for information on replacement bowls.
What is the capacity of each stainless steel bowl?
Each stainless steel bowl has a capacity suitable for a standard cat's portion of food or water. Exact volume is typically around 200-250ml, but this can vary slightly.
Troubleshooting
Bowls do not sit securely in the base
Ensure you are using the correct Alessi 'Tigrito' bowls designed for this feeder. Check for any debris in the base slots that may be preventing a proper fit. Hand wash the base and bowls to ensure they are clean and dry before reinserting.
Resin base has lost its shine
Clean the base with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. If minor scratches are present, they are typical of normal use for this material.
Food residue is difficult to remove from bowls
Soak the stainless steel bowls in warm, soapy water for a few minutes before washing. Alternatively, place them in the dishwasher for effective cleaning.
