ABSTRACT:
An animal feeding and protective device comprising a housing with side walls enclosing a space adapted to receive a feeding dish for an animal. There is an access opening in one of the side walls so that the animal can reach the feeding dish. The side walls are preferably inclined at an acute angle for reception of a food dispenser which also has inclined sides, with the food dispenser being supported along the upper edge of the device. A lid is provided to prevent unauthorized access by an unauthorized animal. The preferred version of the invention is for use by a cat, although the invention clearly can be used by other small animals, effectively to prevent the taking of food by larger animals to the deprivation of the small animal.
