So our oldest, Peaty has not been esting well for the past three months and we knew part of that was because he had dental issues. But even after we had taken care of last January, it's been a struggle to get him to eat enough.
I wont bore you with the details but he has several conditions that we thought were causing it. Although those are managed as well as they can be his behavior still suggested to me that it is painful to lean down to eat for any length of time. I suspect there is arthritis involved, maybe in his spine or legs - he is almost 11 after all.
So I made him a stand for his food dish. It is an old cat litter contsiner with a hole cut in it. The hole is a little smaller than the top of his dish so it drops in. (Those three small holes are ftom another project for which we had used this container.
Voila! And much cheaper than store bought!
