My tiger eats out of a stainless steel bowl and Annika eats out of a correlle small bowl . . .both gets to the dishwasher to be washed when I ran my machine so they have about 8 bowls each . . .so they only get to eat on a clean bowl every meal
As for water, both drink from a water feeder spout which I carry on my website
I find it to be the easiest without creating a mess all over the place . . .and the spout is stainless
