Dylan does not play in water - but he drinks it out of his paws!! That makes a fine mess too.

The container under the bowls sounds like a good one. I think I would look for something like a plastic tray - the kind you put galsses on to serve? That, plus a towel - might help Kasie's drinking problem
Tried the plastic tray, and her aim exceeds that. I end up with a tray full of water and a pond soaked into my kitchen carpet. LOL Might try QSA's idea of the storage container.
