LARGE NO TIP water bowl for my animals. It needs to be stainless steel, ceramic or glass. And like I said, large because all the dogs & cats share it. I think what I have now is like 1 gallon and I prefer something very close to that size.

I currently have a very large pyrex glass mixing bowl for their water dish but Pickles (one of Joe's cats) LOVES to tip it over, multiple times a day. And thats a lot of water to be spilling especially that often. But most importantly if he tips it in the morning after I leave for work or the like, all the dogs & cats have no water to drink for the day.
I swear this cat is like super cat, you'd never think a cat could tip over this big & heavy of a water dish, especially when full but he can & he loves to do it. :p

If you have a "tipper" and know of a product that works really well I'd really appreciate it if you could share the information with me. ;)

I would have to say, get more then 1 large ceramic dish.. I used a 5gal tall pail when I had max.. My sisters cat would stand up, dip her paw in & drink from her paw hehe She didn't live with dad & I, just every now & then we'd babysit the kitty hehe

Thanks but I have a few that I cook with, I tried one out and it doesn't hold up to Sir Pickles. He can tip it over with ease.
And I need just one large bowl, I have NO room for multiple bowls.


I so wish the water fountain bowl things that can hold gallons had stainless steel bowls.

this ones are great, i used to have these but in plastic, heavy ones, cause my puppers also tipped them over.

also have this great ni slip thingy on the bottom so it wont slide.......

Thanks but Pickles can tip them. Kaige's food bowl is just like that and we tried it out with some water last night. It lasted about 25 minutes.

I think I have come up with an idea, thanks to Laura's Babies. I am going to try to build (or find someone who can) some sort of container to put a bowl into, one that makes it impossible to tip over. Of curse I need to find a temp. cure to hold us over until that gets built.

you can buy a.............(i dont know how to call it) but its a metal container like the ones used for horses but a little smaller :p

you can try looking at walmart or some store like that for a bucket thingy but more like a rectangle

or make like a square of glued (with metal bonding thing) sheets of steel and it works well i have one of those

P.S. sorry i´m really bad at words today LOl

this ones are pretty heavy (for a kitty)

For our Saint Bernards, we had a huge plastic feed bowl that was untippable - you could put the large pyrex bowl you currently have inside that.
