Description
A food dish that looks like it came out of the vegetable patch, built to survive a guinea pig. The Kaytee Vege-T-Bowl in the carrot design holds 22 ounces of pellets or water in heavy ceramic finished with lead-free paint. Ceramic is the practical choice for small pets that chew and shove: it is too hard to gnaw, too heavy to flip, and it does not hold odours the way plastic does. The long carrot shape gives a rabbit or guinea pig plenty of trough to eat from without taking up the whole cage floor, and the whole dish goes in the dishwasher when it needs a proper clean.

Ceramic dishes last for years, which makes the higher up-front cost the cheaper option over the life of a pet. The other advantage is hygiene — plastic scratches with use and those scratches hold bacteria and odour, while a glazed ceramic surface stays smooth. Pair the carrot bowl with a water bottle rather than using it for both, and your guinea pig gets a stable feeding station that will not end up upside down under the hay rack.
