The reasons why cats cannot drink water from plastic bowls:

1. If the cat food bowl is made of plastic, it will easily cause folliculitis and black chin in cats. The key to preventing black chin in cats is cleaning. Help the cat clean the food residue from the cat’s chin promptly after meals to reduce the growth of bacteria.

2. Plastic materials are easy to scratch and have slits, so they can easily harbor dirt and evil. At the same time, plastic feeding bowls are difficult to clean and can easily breed bacteria.

What basin can cats use to drink water?

Glass: As a food container, glass is currently the safest. It is non-toxic, harmless, cold and heat-resistant, does not deform, has no odor, and is not sensitive to the amount of water. It is clearly visible, but the disadvantage is that it is easy to break, and some even explode themselves.

Ceramics: Ceramic bowls come in a variety of attractive shapes and are rich in color, but brightly colored ones often contain lead, so it’s best to choose a plainer color.

Stainless steel: The biggest feature of stainless steel is that it is light and does not break no matter how much it is dropped. It is relatively simple in shape. Most of the ones sold on the market are usually matched with wood or plastic to increase stability.
