In the realm of providing meals for funny dogs, the once humble dog or cat dish has changed, and the pet dish and feeding accessory category now encompasses a vast array of product types, including decorative trays, treat and food jars, fountains, feeders and licking pads. The number of choices can be daunting, and today's pet owners choose these items based on an equally wide range of needs.

"Pet parents are looking for solution-based products that enhance their pets' health and provide solutions to their already busy lives," said Damian Hall, senior marketing manager for Mansfield, Massachusetts-based Hagen Group, maker of the Catit brand.

Hall added that options like Catit's automatic cat food feeder and fountains can provide these types of solutions for all types of pet owners, "from the traveling retiree to the pet parent who returns to the office and no longer works remotely," who are looking to improve the lives of their pets.

In addition, Eric Abbey, president and founder of Cranbury, N.J.-based manufacturer Loving Pets, says functionality, price point, and style that complements home décor are important to pet owners.

Neil Peters, sales manager for Carmel Ceramics, a Carmel, California-based manufacturer, adds that convenience and durability are key factors in the selection process when it comes to feeding bowls.

"Our ceramic bowls are popular," Peters said, "because they are dishwasher and microwave safe." These are heavy ceramic pieces that are also very durable."

George's, a retailer with multiple locations in California, makes its own proprietary bowls, says owner Bobby Wise.

"All of our bowls are ceramic or porcelain, and we try to balance 'pops' of color with bowls that have bold graphic statements with a lot of styles that have neutral tones and understated graphics," he says.

Fountain waterers and feeders for dogs and cats are among the items available at the Wag Heaven store in Georgetown, Texas.

"We have many different types of feeders to keep your pet's attention, including slow feeders with multiple interior patterns and designs," says co-owner Jeff Manley.
