September is National Pet Insurance Month, and it’s the perfect time to talk about one of the simplest, most overlooked ways to keep pets healthy (and vet bills lower): the humble food and water bowl.
Most pet parents and pet care pros focus on diet, exercise, and enrichment when it comes to health. But what about the very place pets eat and drink every day? Traditional bowls can be a hidden hotspot for germs, bacteria, and biofilm buildup; all of which can lead to preventable health issues like digestive upset, skin irritation, and even more serious infections.
The Hidden Cost of Dirty Bowls
It only takes a few hours for harmful bacteria to grow in food and water bowls. Left unwashed, they can harbor E. coli, salmonella, mold, and yeast, all of which can compromise a pet’s immune system. For pet parents, this means more trips to the vet — and more claims on insurance. For facilities, it can mean higher costs, staff burnout, and dissatisfied customers.
The truth is, dirty bowls = higher risk = higher costs.
Clean Bowls, Healthy Pets, Lower Bills
That’s where Kinn Kleanbowls® come in. Made with sugar cane fiber that’s certified compostable, Kleanbowl refills eliminate 99.9% of germs that linger even after washing stainless steel or plastic bowls. No biofilm, no lingering odors, no pet refusing water because of yesterday’s taste or smell.
Healthier bowls mean:
- Fewer tummy troubles and infections
