MATERIAL
Stainless steel is regarded by most to be the best all around material for cat food and water bowls. Stainless steel cat bowls won’t accumulate bacteria like plastic bowls, and they won’t chip, crack, or shatter like glass or ceramic bowls. Not all stainless steel is created equal, though. In fact, there are hundreds of different grades of stainless steel, and while some types make great mufflers or appliance faces, not all types make great cat bowls. That’s why we use only 304 series (also known as 18/8) stainless steel for our cat bowls.
DESIGN
SAFETY
Our cat bowls are 100% Made in the USA from only U.S. sourced stainless steel. We’re proud to support U.S. manufacturing and U.S. jobs, but for us, U.S. production is also about the added safety and accountability that comes with it. But in a world where some pet bowls have been recalled for being radioactive and some have been found with high levels of lead, even that isn’t enough. That’s why we send one bowl from every batch out to an independent lab for heavy metals testing (lead, mercury, and cadmium) and screen every batch for radioactivity. That’s also why you won’t find any ‘for pet use only’ labels on our bowls. Our bowls are fit for pets and people, because they should be.
SPECS
TIP! Because of its shallow design, our cat bowl holds a relatively small amount of water. Consider our medium or large size dog bowl for water, especially if you have multiple cats.

Quality pet bowls
I have purchased bowls for both my dog and cat. It's reassuring to know the stainless steel has been tested for lead, mercury, cadmium and more. Highly recommend.
United StatesExcellent product
These bowls are perfect for cats and made in the USA with domestic steel. They are easy to keep clean and wide enough for their whiskers.
United StatesCat likes these bowls
The order arrived in a timely fashion. The bowls look nice. My cat likes drinking out of them. I follow the advice about cleaning and rinsing and have noticed no growth or films or anything in a warm, humid climate. Keep water cool as well. I am so happy to buy American made products that have paid attention to health and environmental quality (toxins, etc.).
AustraliaHands down the best bowls out there
As a parent of two cats, it's important to me that I use only the best quality food and products for my girls. After learning that other "stainless steel" bowls could contain heavy metals including lead and weren't even food grade I was really alarmed. I found these bowls while searching for food grade and 18/8 stainless steel and was so happy to find Basis Pet made right in the United States. I've been using these bowls for over 10 years now and they look just as good as the day I purchased them. They are well worth the cost and you will never need another bowl in your lifetime. Please stop using the cheap shiny stainless steel products because they are not food safe. Get yourself some of these bowls for the health and safety of your fur children.
United StatesStainless steel water bowls for cats
