ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for supplying food and water to animals having a feeding component with an upper reservoir for receiving food therein, a watering component with a lower reservoir for receiving water therein and a water control system having a fluid level regulator to maintain the level of water in the lower reservoir. The upper reservoir is removably supported above the lower reservoir by a support mechanism interconnecting the feeding and watering components. In one configuration, the support mechanism is a post attached to the bottom of the upper reservoir sized and configured to be received in a post connector at the bottom of the lower reservoir. The fluid level regulator can comprise a float level system having a fluid valve connected to float by an actuating arm. A hose can be connected to a connector at an inlet on one of the lower reservoir's sidewalls.
