The Frosty Pet bowl helps to ensure that your cat or dog has access to cool, fresh water throughout the day. It' simple and easy, all you need to do to make sure your pet has cool water for up to 8 hours is detach the freezer core, place it in the freezer to chill, remove from the freezer, fill with water, and place it back in the bowl! The insulating gel beads keep the water cooler, much longer, whether the bowl is indoors or outdoors. Not only is this bowl designed to keep water cool for up to 8 hours; it is also compact and chew resistant with a slide-proof base. You won't have to worry about buying a new water bowl every 3 months, because your furry friend chewed it up, and you'll spend less time mopping up spills, due to the slide resistant base.
