Bergan Ant Free Pet Bowl

I have been battling ants for quite some time in my home. No matter what I tried, they'd always find some way to get into my cat's food. This product has finally stopped them. It's really easy...pour a little dishwashing soap (I use Ivory) in the "moat" around the 2 bowls, and then add some water. It's that simple.

I agree with the other reviewer who said the product was a bit large for her cat. What I have done is modify things a bit by putting small bowls in either side that always stay there, and then I put my cat's regular bowls on top of them. That way things are elevated and are easier for my cat to access.

It would be great if Bergan made a more cat-friendly product. However, I am THRILLED with my purchase, as this has finally has resolved the problem.

No matter how hard we tried, we could not keep ants out of the cat food we leave outside. This bowl works perfectly, now we are feeding the cats and not the ants. Highly recommend.

This product would be great for dogs, however it's a bit too large for my cats. This was the smallest ant-free pet bowl I could find and I'm just happy my kitties don't have ants in their food.

Like many other reviewers, I found this food dish to be alarmingly large even for my 20 lb rag doll cat. He took to it very quickly and after a week, we have no ants in the food. I have already emailed the manufacturer to suggest a smaller size. The feeder comes with approx. 6x6 inch bowls and are great for a dog but for cats could be more like 3x3 or 4x4 and take up less room. After 3 months, the ants have found the weak link in this product-the injection hole at the center of the product in the middle of the divider between the bowls is open and the ants come under the bowls and up through the hole to FEAST on the cat food. the solution is to seal the hole---tape, silicone sealer, hot glue--a screw, but SEAL the hole. UPDATE Now two months later, the cat food is safe 24/7 outside. I put a small screw in the offending hole and if I keep water in the moat, the ants can only get the kibble the cat or the birds leave outside the bowl.

This feeder holds dry food and water for my 2 cats. I leave dry food available for them at all times. The moat system is a very good idea to keep ants out of the food. I tried to create a version of this on my own, and ran into immediate problems because the cats would move the food bowl to the edge of the "moat" allowing the ants to avoid the water. I didn't realize for a couple of days that being unable to remove the bowls from the moat was going to be a problem. I solved it quickly by placing their old bowls into the fixed ones. In a perfect world the unit could be disassembled to clean it. It works and will last for years.
