About this bowl
Does your cat prefer to eat next to her food bowl rather than in it? Does your cat fish her kibble out of the bowl with her paw?
This is often due to whisker stress: in a regular, deep bowl, the sensitive whiskers rub against the rim. The Whisker Friendly Bowl is wide and shallow, so the whiskers remain free and your cat can eat and drink in peace. As a water bowl, it resembles a puddle of water, which encourages your cat to drink more.
Our food bowls are made from PINO Sandstone®, a strong and heavy material that keeps the bowl in place, prevents it from tipping over, and is hypoallergenic.
Black Panther Winter Edition. The same bowl in PINO Sandstone®, in solid black or black marble. Handmade in a social workplace in Belgium. The marble is swirled by hand, so no two are alike. Every piece comes with its own numbered certificate. We make a limited number of every piece. Once they are gone, they do not come back.
Handmade in Belgium.
Material and care
Made from PINO Sandstone®, our own material from natural sand. Heavy enough to stay put, hypoallergenic, and free from BPA, phthalates, PVC and lead.
Dishwasher safe at 30°C on the top rack. Fine for wet food, kibble or water, and it also goes in the fridge. Not suitable for the microwave. Every bowl is handmade in Belgium, so small differences in the finish are part of it.

ROOM FOR EVERY WHISKER
Does your cat eat next to her bowl instead of from it? Does she fish her kibble out with a paw? That is often whisker stress. Whiskers are sensitive, and in a regular, deep bowl they rub against the rim at every bite.
The Whisker Friendly Bowl is wide and shallow. The whiskers stay free, and your cat can eat and drink in peace.
-
Wide and shallow
The rim stays out of the way, so the whiskers do not brush against it.
-
A puddle, not a bowl
As a water bowl it looks like a puddle, and that invites your cat to drink more.
-
Eating in the bowl again
Less reason to fish kibble out with a paw or to eat next to the bowl.
-
Heavy enough to stay put
PINO Sandstone® does not slide or tip, even when a paw gets involved.
Is your cat eating or drinking much less than usual? See your vet first. The bowl makes meals more comfortable, it does not treat.
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. It is hypoallergenic too.
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 wide, shallow shape gives the whiskers the room a standard bowl does not.

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 cats is this bowl for?
For every cat, and especially for cats that eat next to their bowl, fish their kibble out with a paw or leave food behind. The wide, shallow shape keeps the whiskers free.
What is whisker stress?
Whiskers are sensitive. In a regular, deep bowl they rub against the rim at every bite, and many cats find that unpleasant. You may also hear it called whisker fatigue.
How do I know if my cat is bothered by it?
Watch how your cat eats. Eating next to the bowl rather than from it, or fishing kibble out with a paw, are typical signs. Is your cat eating much less or losing weight? Then see your vet first.
Can I use it as a water bowl?
Yes. Wide and shallow, it looks like a puddle of water, and that invites your cat to drink more. Take two, one for food and one for water, and put them on the Black Panther Tray in Medium.
What is the difference between Solid and Marble?
Only the look. Solid is one calm black, Marble has white veins swirled through it by hand. The shape and the material are the same.
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 and add the Raised Tray Extension underneath, with four heights to choose from. The lowest position suits most cats, and it already makes a clear difference for older cats that would otherwise crouch over their bowl.
Is it dishwasher safe?
Yes, at 30°C on the top rack. It also goes in the fridge. Not suitable for the microwave: our natural material does not like it too hot.
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.
WHICH BOWL SUITS YOUR CAT?
Every Black Panther bowl is made from the same sand, but not every cat eats the same way.
