The Niner Slow Feed Bowl in Aquamarine – Nine Peaks Slow Eating, Fits Neater Feeder Large, Holds 2 Cups
The Niner slow feed bowl by Neater Pet Brands uses nine raised peaks to split dry or wet food into small compartments, which can help dogs and cats eat more slowly. It fits inside large Neater Feeder models (Express Medium to Large and Deluxe Large) as well as most 2-quart raised holders. The bowl holds up to 2 cups of food and measures 8.38 inches across the top, 7.43 inches at the base, and 2.44 inches tall. Made in the USA from BPA- and phthalate-free ABS plastic, it has a non-skid rubber bottom for use on its own and is top-rack dishwasher safe.
How Does The Niner Help with Digestion and Boredom?
When pets gulp down food too quickly, it can lead to vomiting, choking, bloat, or indigestion. By creating nine separate pockets, The Niner forces pets to eat from each compartment, naturally slowing their pace. This slower eating may aid proper digestion and reduce the risk of overeating. Additionally, the puzzle-like design provides mental stimulation—many pets enjoy the challenge of working around the peaks, which can relieve boredom during feeding time.
Will It Fit My Raised Feeder?
The Niner is designed as an insert for raised feeders. It fits the Neater Feeder Express Medium to Large size and the Neater Feeder Deluxe Large size. It also works with most other 2-quart raised pet bowl holders. If you don’t use a raised feeder, the bowl’s anti-skid rubber dots keep it stable on the floor. Note that for best results, do not overfill beyond 2 cups; larger dogs may need a refill depending on their meal size.
