Is the bowl big enough for 2 cats to eat from?

Yes. but timer very confusing to set and it's battery operated good for week vacations but not continuous use. I would not recommend

Yes, I think so. I just took a measurement and it comes out 7 inches from the front of the container and is 8 1/2 inches wide.

Yes. I only have one cat, but there's plenty of room. It's made to fit fairly large dog heads. However, it pours out almost three times as much food as my cat needs, so now I have a fat cat and changed feeders. It may work well for two cats though.

Yes it is. I actually bought this as a gift for my grandfather's dog though. The first one I ordered did not work so I had to send it back for another one. He told me that it was very difficult and confusing to program. He had to ask for help and even then they struggled to program it. He lives out of state so I was not there to determine why. After a few weeks, he told me that he thought it was not feeding the correct amounts. They had set to feed 3/4 cup at each feeding but that it would spill out between 1-2 cups at times. Not sure if it is a program or mechanical issue.

Short answer - Yes. I have 2 full grown cats and they manage quite well. However most of the time, mine tend to take turns. Dominant (the boss) eats first, then submissive. The food bowl is about 8 inches wide at the bottom and at least 6 inches deep. When I put wet food in on top of the dry, they both eat comfortably from the same bowl.

I haven't measured, but though the bowls are small they are adequate for my cats. I would guess the small one holds about a cup or cup and a half, and the larger one probably holds 2 1/2 - 3 cups.

I would think both cats could fit in the hole, separately that is. It is 7" in diameter.

Wow - 3 inches! The bowls have an opening of about 1 1/2 inches, so that might be difficult for her. All of the openings are made to be small so that the average-sized cat would have to work at it.

I have a dominate cat who usually forces his way to the bowl. The second cat usually will walk away. We've had the feeder for about a month or so. For me I don't see this as a problem and since they have to lower their heads into the bowl. Only one cat will fit. It right away registers the second cat even if the first was already there eating. Both of my cats are on diets so they both have gotten used to it closing on them. I now find that the more dominate cat will now wait his turn (Something he never used to do) knowing it may it may not close on him. I think he waits to see if it will close on her also. :-) I have a dominate cat who usually forces his way to the bowl. The second cat usually will walk away.

Yes this should work for cats if you think they eat too fast. I would just recommend much smaller bowl for cat. The idea is for the animal to work harder to get food, so it takes them longer to eat the same amount of food.

Not unless they are massive! :) My daughter has this for her 65 pound dog and her cat doesn't bother it. The food is down in the bowl as shown in the picture but as far as the food in the hopper its safe..

If your cat is very food motivated it probably could do that. This is one of the deeper styles. The flower style slo-bowl isn't as deep. The one with parallel lines would be probably be easiest for a cat to get the food out of. But I don't have a cat so I'm just guessing.

I can fit just under a cup of water and food in a single bowl. 1/2 - 3/4 c dry food and some wet food fit comfortably in the bowl and suffices for a day to 2 days of food for my small cat (under 10 lbs).

Yes, it is definitely big enough for two cats. I think it will hold up to cat teeth for sure. I have a little Schnauzer Yorkie mix and he clawed and chewed it a lot at first and it was fine. just make sure the top is zipped all the way closed so that they can't get their little paws out because they will be able to slide the zipper if they do. We connected the two zipper pulls with a paper clip to prevent this.

I would NOT feed directly from the can of cat food. Two reasons...it's too small a space for the cat to comfortably feed in,,,and most cans, once opened, have a SHARP edge around them on the inside!! Give the poor little kitty his or her own bowl.

It is plenty big for two cats. I have more than two and it works well. I haven't seen more than one cat there at the same time, but if one wants a drink and another cat is already at the fountain, I've seen them wait until it's their turn. So, it's a big attraction for them, which is what we want to keep our cats hydrated!

unfortunantly not the plastic bowl is specially made to fit if you used a smaller bowl your cat probably would be able to flip it over and get to it. ive read cats can get them open

No, the middle platform with the cat condo has a hole in it, the next platform up is smaller and I doubt it would br feasible to feed two cats as it is 19.5" x 21.5" and top tier also hinders the available space. I hope this helps.

I have two cats and this thing is wonderful, we have been using it for over a year and it has been absolutely flawless. The bowl is big enough for two cats to have there heads down and eating. Depending on how much you feed your cats, you may have to feed them using multiple cycles, in the event that one cycle is not enough, it is for our cats, approx. 3 years old!

I have a York ie that eats and drinks too fast and then throw a up. We are using the feeding bowl and water bowl- works like a charm. I do t have a cat, howecer, the bowl is shallow so I would think it would work. Not sure how it would work with canned food....designed to use with dry kibble.

Yes it's fine, I have two cats. I find the larger bowls having the cats pushing the food around with their tongues and ending up along the sides.
