📝 Product Details
From the brand
Mud, puddles (the bigger the better), more mud – these are just a few things our furry friends love. Chris and Lauren’s pooches Daisy and Davis are no different. Their favorite place is the great outdoors – unfortunately, they like to bring it back inside with them too. And so, Messy Mutts was born: a new line of fashionable and functional dog care products.
Dog & Cat Feeders/Travel Bowls
Chris has been designing stylish housewares for years. His eye for design is like a dog’s sense of smell. All Messy Mutts products are tastefully colorful, stylish, and most importantly functional. Just ask Daisy: “Woof, Woof” or Davis: “Bark!” They sure agree.

Each set contains two saucer shaped stainless steel bowls (14oz / 1.75 cups per bowl, 6″ d x 1″ h) and two silicone lids (6” d).
The low profile saucer shaped bowl helps reduce whisker fatigue and irritation. Designed for independent use or can be integrated with a Messy Cats silicone single or double feeder systems (manufacturers item code MC010- and MC020-) for additional help to keep the bowls in place and contain the mess.
Prepare raw meals ahead of time, thaw and keep fresh in the refrigerator. The lids are air-tight, stackable and spill resistant (even with liquids – check out the video) which also makes them great for travel, dry or wet food if you furry friend does not finish their meal.
Reduce the chance of cross contamination in your kitchen by prepping your meals in the same bowl your cat eats from…and then putting it in the dishwasher!
Stainless bowls are non-toxic and rust resistant. Lids are made from food-grade safe silicone, and are BPA and PVC Free. All components are dishwasher safe. 1 year manufacturers warranty.
