ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a pet food feeding apparatus, and more specifically to a tumbler-like pet food feeding apparatus that forces pet food to the outside for eating when oscillated by the pet.
When feeding pet food to a pet, a pet food feeding apparatus may be used.
FIG. 1
shows a pet food feeding container A for this purpose. As illustrated, pet food B is directly put in the pet food feeding container A, and the pet C can directly take up pet food B from the pet food feeding container A. Because the pet C can get pet food B easily, using this kind of pet food feeding apparatus cannot train the intelligence of the pet C.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a pet food feeding apparatus which lures the pet with a pet food smell, enabling the intelligence of the pet to be trained when searching pet food. According to the present invention, the pet food feeding apparatus comprises a hollow base, a hollow top cover shell covered on the base, and a pan retained in between the base and the top cover shell. The base has a weight at the center of its flat bottom wall. The top cover shell has outlets around the periphery. Pet food is forced out of the outlets for eating when the pet food feeding apparatus is oscillated by the pet.
