Product Information

Full details

The Scruffs Icon Slow Feeder Pet Bowl is an ideal solution for pet owners looking to improve their animal's digestion by slowing down rapid eaters. By utilizing internal raised ridges, it encourages a healthier, more controlled eating pace, which can help mitigate common issues like bloating and regurgitation. While the heavy stoneware construction makes it exceptionally stable and durable, potential users should note that the bowl's weight makes it less portable than lightweight plastic alternatives.

FAQs

Is this bowl suitable for both cats and dogs?

Yes, the 20cm size is versatile enough for most dog breeds and larger cats, provided they can reach the food comfortably.

Can I put this bowl in the microwave?

Yes, the Scruffs Icon Slow Feeder is microwave safe, making it convenient if you need to warm up refrigerated pet food.

How do I clean the ridges inside the bowl?

Because it is dishwasher safe, your dishwasher will effectively clean the ridges. If hand washing, a bottle brush or soft cloth can reach into the crevices.

Is the stoneware material toxic-free?

Yes, the bowl is made from food-grade stoneware that is safe for pet consumption.

Will my pet break this if they knock it over?

While the stoneware is durable and chip-resistant, it is still a ceramic-based product and can crack or shatter if dropped on a hard surface like tile or concrete.

Troubleshooting

Pet is struggling to get the food out

Try using smaller kibble or a softer wet food consistency to make navigating the internal ridges easier for your pet.

Bowl is sliding on slick floor surfaces

Place the bowl on a non-slip rubber feeding mat to provide extra traction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and chip-resistant heavy stoneware construction
  • Effectively prevents gulping and promotes better digestion
  • Safe for use in both dishwashers and microwaves
  • Stable base stays in place on the floor
  • Aesthetic design with embossed paw prints

Cons

  • Heavier weight makes it less portable for travel
  • Requires careful handling to avoid accidental breakage
  • May be more difficult for very flat-faced breeds to reach food in tight corners

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is straightforward: simply place the bowl on a flat, level surface where your pet typically eats. Because of the stoneware material, avoid placing it on glass tables or high shelves where a slip could lead to breakage.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: The bowl is dishwasher safe. For hand washing, use warm, soapy water and a soft sponge to preserve the finish.
  2. Maintenance: Periodically inspect the surface for any signs of heavy impact cracks to ensure continued safety.
  3. Microwave Use: If warming food, ensure the bowl is not heated to extreme temperatures that could be uncomfortable for your pet's nose.
