Specifications, side by side
1 of 12 rows differ. Differences first.
| Specification | Outward Hound Fun Feeder Slow Bowl Medium | Catit Flower Automatic Drinking Water Fountain 3L |
|---|---|---|
| Price | ₹999 | ₹3,299 |
| Cleaning | Top-rack dishwasher safe, and the maze does trap food | The pump must be dismantled and cleaned roughly fortnightly or it slimes and gets noisy |
| Warranty | 1 Year Official Brand Warranty | 1 Year Official Brand Warranty |
| Capacity | not published | 3 litres |
| Filter | not published | Carbon filter, replaced roughly monthly. This is the ongoing cost and it is easy to forget |
| Material | BPA and phthalate free plastic | not published |
| Noise | not published | Quiet when clean and full. A low water level makes the pump audible |
| Not a cure | Slow feeding reduces one risk factor. It does not prevent GDV, and elevated bowls and post-meal exercise are separate considerations to discuss with a vet | not published |
| Power | not published | Mains via USB adapter, so a power cut stops the flow |
| Purpose | Extends mealtime roughly ten times by making the dog work around a maze | not published |
| Size | Medium, about 2 cups | not published |
| Why a fountain | not published | Cats evolved to get water from prey and have a low thirst drive. Moving water is more attractive to them, and higher water intake supports urinary and kidney health -- a genuine concern in cats |
| Why it matters medically | Gastric dilatation-volvulus, or bloat, is associated with rapid eating and is life-threatening in deep-chested breeds such as Great Danes, Boxers, German Shepherds and Dobermans. Slowing intake is one of the standard mitigations | not published |
