SUCTION CUP BASE FOR SECURE ATTACHMENT: The underside has 22 wide suction cups that grip the bottom of your dog's existing bowl. This stops the insert from lifting up when your dog pushes food around or tries to flip the bowl. The suction works on stainless steel ceramic and plastic bowls without needing water or adhesive. A design that turns any standard bowl into a slow feeder without buying a new bowl. FLOWER PETAL MAZE FOR PROLONGED EATING: The raised pattern creates a series of curved channels that force your dog to work around obstacles to reach food. This design slows down gulpers who would finish a meal in under a minute. The gaps are sized for medium and large breed kibble so the food does not get stuck. A shape that extends feeding time without frustrating your dog. TRIM TO FIT DIFFERENT BOWL SIZES: The insert is designed to fit bowls with a bottom diameter of 14 to 18 centimetres. You can cut the outer edge with scissors to make it smaller for a tighter fit. This means one insert works for different bowls you already own or for future replacements. A flexible size for households with multiple dog bowls of different dimensions. FOOD GRADE SILICONE FOR WET AND DRY FOOD: The material is safe for contact with wet food gravy and raw meat. Silicone does not absorb odours or flavours so you can switch from kibble to wet food without lingering smells. The surface is non stick so food residue rinses off easily. A material choice for dogs that eat a mix of dry biscuits and tinned food. DISHWASHER SAFE FOR EASY CLEANING: The insert can be placed on the top rack of a dishwasher or washed by hand with soap and water. The flexible material lets you flip it inside out to reach any stuck bits. The silicone does not warp in the dishwasher heat or absorb detergent smells. A low maintenance design for owners who feed wet food multiple times per day.
