Cat Feeding Equipment
If you have suitable
dishes, then special purchases are not necessary. The best choices
are made of hard plastic, ceramic or stainless steel. They should be easy to
clean. Throw out any that are cracked or chipped as these harbour germs.
Don’t use a cats bowl for anything other than its purpose. Its important to
maintain strict hygiene to guard against toxoplasmosis. Clean the feeding
area regularly. The cat may reject food due to a tainted smell, so keeping
the area clean is essential.
A closed off eating area is a good idea if you have young
children.
You may need 3 cat bowls
depending on what you are feeding your cat, normally you'll have one bowl
for water, one for wet food and one for dry food. It is wise to have a mat
under any cat food bowls, as this will help you with any cleaning. Try not
to clean the cats eating area with citrus scented products, as cats do not
like citrus, ask your vet for suitable cat friendly products.
