Heavy waterbowl?

[leona2025]

Ok So this is about my cat. lol. I have a 20lbs purebred maine coon and he loves water. He will get in the shower with you. I have leave the toilet seat covered or he will get in the toilet water. Anyway, I have tried every bowl I can think of and he is able to turn it over after dragging them around the house first. Any ideas of a bowl heavy enough that he cant move?

Have you tried the ceramic or clay ones?

 

[musicdeb]

Good idea, Th0r!

 

[leona2025]

I will try those next. He is alble to drag 5 gallons of water.

What type of bowl do you have now? The only thing I can think of is the non-skid bowls

maybe a piece of non-skid matting under the bowl?

I use a crock pot replacement liner. Heavy enough the 2 Mastiffs playing don't knock it over.

^^ Too funny. The dog was trapped, too.... Hope that cat was up on his rabies vaccinations!

I like the crock pot liner idea - they might have something good like that at the goodwill store.

I was thinking of something like a metal pot - with a metal plate welded to the bottom, such that you could weight the pot down with bricks or screw it into the floor or something.
You could do that with a big plastic double-walled dish, too... drill some holes in the outer wall, then use some U-bolts to attach it to a big board?

He is very strong and very determined. No water is safe in my house. If you scroll down to Spock, you will have an idea of how big he is... He thinks he is a dog. http://www.congocoon.com/kittensforsale.html

Thanks for all the ideas!

Yup, thats a 'coon. We had a part maine coon when I was a kid. 13-14lbs of fur and muscle. And he used to sleep in the sink with the dripping faucet.....or occasionally the middle of the kitchen floor, right where you'd step when you'd step back from the stove.....

My cat's name is Cat. lol. He is like a ninja. He is everywhere and nowhere all at once. I have a 5lbs Chihuahua and she would beat him up every day. It's funny to see him wrestle her now. He always wins.

 

[ruthcatrin]

That doesn't surprise me!

Holy shi**! That's a big cat!

PawNosh makes bowls out of recycled glass. They are really thick and are pretty heavy. Plus they look really cool.

This isn't a heavy bowl, but it is in a feeder where the bowl would be difficult to pull out: Amazon.com : Neater Feeder Deluxe for Large Dogs in Bronze by Neater Pet Brands : Raised Pet Bowls : Pet Supplies
