SHORT SNOUT, SLOW MEAL
French bulldogs, pugs, boxers, Persian cats: plenty of appetite, not much snout. Many of them eat far too fast. A slow feeder helps, but a regular one is often too deep for a flat face. The snout cannot reach the food, and dinner turns into a struggle.
The Flat Slow Feeder keeps the obstacles low. A short snout reaches every bite, and your pet still has to slow down, without the frustration.
-
Low obstacles for a short snout
The rings inside are lower than in a regular slow feeder, so a flat face reaches the food all the way down.
-
Smaller bites, calmer meals
The rings split the food up, so your pet takes small bites instead of gulping it all down at once.
-
A little brain work
Finding every bite keeps your pet busy for longer. Mental stimulation, without the frustration.
-
Heavy enough to stay put
PINO Sandstone® does not slide or tip, even with an eager eater pushing it around.
Does your pet often vomit after eating, or have trouble breathing or digesting? See your vet first. The bowl slows down meals, it does not treat anything.
A NUMBERED CERTIFICATE IN EVERY BOX
Every piece is made by hand in a social workplace in Belgium. The marble is swirled by hand, so no two bowls are alike. Each piece ships with its own numbered certificate.
Black Panther is a limited edition. We make a limited number of every piece. Once they are gone, they do not come back.
MADE FROM SAND, BUILT FOR DAILY LIFE
Every PINO bowl is made from PINO Sandstone®, our own material based on natural sand. It gives the bowl real weight, a soft stone feel and a surface that stays fresh.
Plastic slides and scratches, ceramic chips, metal clatters across the floor. Sand does none of that. Each piece is finished by hand in a social workplace in Belgium.

Why sand beats the usual bowl
Most bowls are made from plastic, ceramic or metal. Each has its weak spot. PINO Sandstone® was developed to avoid them, and the Flat Slow Feeder adds low obstacles made for a short snout.

A LONG-AWAITED RETURN
Two years after its first release, the black collection remains one of our most requested colours. Its return is inspired by the mystery and strength of the black panther.
Where the first black edition only offered marble for the Classic Bowls, this winter collection brings marble to every bowl type, giving each design a more expressive character.
Dark, timeless and refined. Each piece is handmade in Belgium from our signature PINO Sandstone®, with a strong character, real weight and lasting quality. And, as always, designed around the comfort of dogs and cats.

How limited is the Black Panther Winter Edition?
We make a limited number of each piece, and every one comes with its own numbered certificate. The last pieces are still being made by hand in the social workplace, so new stock comes in regularly. If your size is not ready yet, your order may ship a day later. If there is a longer delay, we will let you know. Once they are gone, they do not come back.
Which pets is this bowl for?
For dogs and cats with a short, flat snout that eat too fast: French bulldogs, pugs, boxers, Boston terriers, Persian and other flat-faced cats. If a regular slow feeder is too deep for your pet, this one is for you.
Will my pet get frustrated?
That is exactly what the low obstacles are for. Your pet has to work a little for every bite, but can reach all of it. Slower, not impossible.
Why does eating too fast matter?
Pets that gulp often vomit or beg for more right after their meal. Eating too fast can also lead to bloating, weight gain or digestive problems. Worried? Ask your vet.
Which bowl should I use for water?
A bowl without obstacles. The Classic Bowl in Medium fits on the same tray. Or take the wide, shallow Whisker Friendly Bowl, made for cats and just as handy for a flat-faced dog.
Is every marble bowl the same?
No. The white veins are swirled through the black by hand, so every marble bowl has its own pattern. The photos show the finish, not your exact bowl.
Can I raise the bowl?
Yes. Put it on the Black Panther Tray in Medium with a second bowl, and add the Raised Tray Extension underneath. You choose from four heights: 11, 19, 23 or 30 cm, set by hand, no tools.
Is it dishwasher safe?
Yes, at 30°C on the top rack. You can also put it in the fridge, handy if you feed raw.
How fast is delivery, and can I return it?
Every Black Panther piece is made by hand in a social workplace in Belgium. In stock? Delivered in 2 to 3 working days. Shipping is free over 100 euro in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and Luxembourg, and you can return within 14 days.
