I decided to make a review of Binkies Pet Supply Elevated cat bowl because it’s the first raised cat bowl I’ve seen that is almost completely flat and large enough that fits almost any cat size.
I wanted to know more about this elevated bowl and see if it was really a good choice to feed cats. I’ve seen some raised bowls that feature corners where food gets stuck making it hard for cats to finish their meal. Also, some flat-type elevated dishes don’t contain the food properly so when cats are eating the food slides off and onto the floor.
Finally, I was curious to see if this elevated bowl is good for cats with disabilities that can’t stand up too long or hunch over to eat. Let’s see what I found out about this particular item.
Features & Key Benefits of Binkies Elevated Cat Bowl
- Elevated bowls help to reduce strain in the cat’s body, preventing pain in joints and muscles.
- A better posture relaxes the body, helping the cat’s digestion
- Raising the food prevents vomiting in cats
- Flat shaped bowl reduces whiskers stress in cats
- The stylish look fits any decor
- Ergonomic design that keeps food-centered and lip on the bowl edge allows cats to finish their meal with ease, stopping the food from sliding out as the cat eats.
- Cats can finish their meal up to the last bit of their food.
- Made of lead and cadmium-free porcelain, surpassing FDA quality standards.
- Porcelain prevents bacteria that causes feline chin acne
- Microwave and dishwasher safe
- Dimensions: 6” dia x 4” high
- Bowl depth: 1-inch from the bottom of the bowl to the top rim.
More nice details about Binkies Pet Supply Cat Dish
What I like about this unit is that the dish doesn’t separate from the base. This is one piece which makes it easier to manipulate without the risk of dropping it.
This elevated cat bowl holds up to one cup of dry cat food and about 5 ounces of wet canned food. It is recommended to feed cats with half of this capacity to avoid spilling.
I can see how the Binkies Pet Supply raised cat bowl can be a great solution for flat faced cats that have a hard time reaching over the food from the floor level. The Binkies not only makes it easier for the cat to eat its food, but also it’s one of the best wide cat dishes that prevent whiskers stress.

What are the pros & cons of Binkies Supply raised cat bowl?
A list of the good things about this elevated cat dish and the bad things that you may consider:
PROS

- Porcelain is more hygienic
- Sturdy, it doesn’t slide around when the cat is eating
- Easy to clean
- Bowl is tall and wide, suitable for adult cats of any size
- Flat cat bowl that helps to reduce whiskers stress
- Perfect depth, between a saucer and a bowl (about 1 inch).
- Food doesn’t get stuck anywhere in the bowl
- It helps to reduce cat’s vomiting
- Felines with disabilities can eat while sitting
- Excellent for flat-faced cats
- Cats can’t tip this over
- Concave bottom provides better grip to hand-wash it
CONS

- Impossible to carry without spilling if used as a water bowl (definitely too shallow and wide as a water bowl)
What do I think about Benkies Cat bowl?
I think that Binkies Pet Supply Elevated cat bowl is a great solution for any adult cat who needs to get a better posture when eating dry or wet food.
The design of this cat dish is well thought out to keep the food in the center of the dish while the cat eats. This avoids dry or wet food from sliding out the dish. The ergonomic lip on the rim doesn’t get wet food stuck under like other bowls do, which usually makes it hard for the cat to reach the food to eat.
Finally, this is the only porcelain elevated cat bowl that has more of a shape of a saucer, which helps a lot of cats that hate their whiskers being touched when eating.
Bottom Line
I recommend Binkies Pet Supply elevated cat dish for any adult cat, especially:
- Flat-faced cats
- Cats with disabilities or that had a surgery
- Cats that hiccup or vomit after eating
- Elderly felines
This elevated cat bowl may not be suitable for:
- Kittens
- Cats that scoop the kibble with their paws when eating
- Use as a water dish

Hi Laura, this product is unavailable.
I LOVE this elevated cat bowl! I keep trying to find more of them. In the process, I have tried others and have just had to return them. I have 3 large Maine Coons, but I originally bought one for my older cat, and another for one who had just had knee surgery. They work perfectly! But over time, I have accidentally broken a couple of them, and I want to replace them.
Hello Dianne, I loved mine too and same happened to me. It broke and I couldn’t find same brand so I bought the Yangbaga elevated bowl and I love it as much. Check it out if you haven’t. Check my review of it here.
Where can you purchase them online?
