Green Slow FeederGreen is a revolutionary way to slow a dog’s eating to savour his food. Many dogs lack mental stimulation which can lead to boredom and unwanted behaviours such as chewing. The Green keeps dogs mentally stimulated during feeding time, helping to reduce these behaviours. Simply scatter the desired amount of food across the Green. The dog will then enjoy the challenge of pushing the food out between its many 'blades' of grass. Green works with wet (tinned), dry and raw food (BARF). What are the benefits of Green? Green slows down eating time which can reduce the risk of bloat* - a potentially fatal disease for any dog. By prolonging eating, the risk of vomiting, gagging, gas and belching is also significantly reduced, resulting in a happier and healthier dog. A study showed that eating too quickly increases the risk of bloat by 15%. Feeding one large meal a day can also increase the risk of bloat. 30% of dogs that suffer from bloat do not survive. |
Sizes & Key InformationThe Green has been designed so that one size can be used for all dogs, regardless of weight and breed. It is made of hard plastic (without phthalates) and is dishwasher safe, making it perfect for both inside and outdoor use. But for those smaller dogs and puppies, our new Green Mini is perfectly suited. Key Information: Just scatter your dog's dinner across the Green. Mentally Challenge your dog with every meal. Actually see your dog enjoy working for his food. Slow down fast-eaters and reduce the risk of 'bloat'. Ideal for those on a restricted calorie diet. Dishwasher safe and phthalate free. |
Catch Interactive Feeder for CatsCatch is a revolutionary way to turn your cat’s meal into a challenging game. Many cats lack mental stimulation which can lead to boredom. By entertaining your cat using their own food to stimulate their natural instincts and ability to catch food with their paws, you can help to remove these problems. The desired amount of cat food is scattered across the Catch and it is up to your cat to push or grab the food between the many smoothly rounded spikes. Catch will help to significantly prolong your cat's eating time. Helping to make your cat happier and healthier at the same time. It is made of hard plastic (without phthalates) so is extremely durable and dishwasher safe. For extra variety with your cats' feeding routine the Catch is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. |

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It was difficult to get her super interested in her food before, so she had just a regular dog food fool with no obstructions. Once we started her on Prednisone though, it would take her about 20 seconds to finish a cup of food. So I tried the JW Pet Skid Stop Slow Feed Bowl - it would slow her down to about one minute. I decided that that was still unacceptable and ordered the Northmate Interactive Feeder. I'm happy to report that it now takes her over 5 minutes to finish one cup of food at each of her meals. I especially love watching her trying to figure out how to lick the food out of the blades; she often ends up flinging the food out of the feeder, but she's quick to clean it up. I know I could slow her eating down further if I put 1/4 cup in the feeder at a time since she slows down the most when there's an evenly disbursed layer of kibble on the feeder.
The Northmate Interactive Feeder is a bit of a pain to wash, but it's certainly doable. It's pretty rigid and tough; I've had it for about a month now and there aren't any gashes on it from her eating from it. Overall, I think it's an amazing product that does exactly what it advertises. This is a wonderful feeder for someone who is trying to slow their dogs' eating, especially for those deep chested breeds who are more susceptible to bloat.
EDIT 2013/11/13: Just found out that the Green Feeder is dishwasher safe! If you don't want to go the dishwasher route, or you feed more than twice daily and wash in between uses, I'd suggest using a bottle brush to effectively scrub between each blade. I use the Boston Warehouse Glass Brush (Bee) and I am able to quickly wash the Green Feeder.
The lab loved it from the get-go. The shepherd needed some convincing, but now also enjoys it. They went from eating in one minute or less to taking 5-10 minutes to eat.
I love that this feeder mimics how wolves eat in the wild (licking up the scraps up meat in the grass blades) and really makes my dogs work for their food. There is a bit of learning curve but it's fun to watch them sniff for the last pebbles and use their tongues to work the food free.
I've used this for both dry food and human foods (corn, turkey, eggs, green beans, etc.) and it works well for them all. The only downside is it's not the easiest to keep clean. Definitely rinse with hot water after each use. I believe they're dishwasher safe, but I've not tried that out yet.
The downside to this dish. We have linoleum floors and this thing slides like crazy on it. So we put it on an oval placemat, which really just slows her down marginally. The problem is that the shapes in the center are so high that she has to paw the food out (she has to even at the sides, but not as much) - this in turn means that the dish goes on a journey around our kitchen and could literally end up anywhere by the time she's done. And, because she's having to paw her food out, the food goes everywhere - under the stove, the fridge, a wicker stand, anywhere it can fit under, which in turn attracts pests.
I love this product, believe me. It definitely slows her down, it also provides entertainment watching her eat, keeps her mind active trying to figure out where the food is that she's just sent flying. Its just not suited for our kitchen.

This is the best slow-feeder we have found for our dog, who typically scarfs down her dinner in about 5-10 seconds. With this slow feeder, it now takes her upwards of 10 minutes to finished her dinner. It's extremely well built and sturdy. I have no doubt we will be able to use this for years to come.
