A raised bowl sets water or food a little higher, for a cat that eats standing. Choose the height on the sheet, according to the cat’s size. Moving water stays in “Bowl or fountain”. The stand and the dispenser are two objects, each with its own sheet.

The height

The muzzle meets the bowl without the cat lying down.

Beside the fountain

The stand and the fountain stay two objects. Each has its own sheet.

Common questions

Is a raised bowl a fountain?

No. A fountain moves the water. The stand only lifts it.

And the Ferplast dispenser?

It is a dispenser, set on the floor. It is listed so it stays distinct from the stand.

Which height?

The one on the sheet, according to the cat’s size. The muzzle meets the bowl.
