ABSTRACT:
An improved splash and spill-resistant container for holding fluids for animal consumption is disclosed. The container forms a cavity with a top access aperture which defines an inverted channel. A partition divides the cavity into first and second chambers. The partition curves downward from the periphery substantially to the floor of the container and is provided with a flow aperture, thereby allowing fluid communication between the first and second chambers. A valve is also provided in the second chamber to release air from the second chamber and to allow the container to be emptied. After filling the container with a volume of fluid, the container may be subjected to lateral jarring or inverted without spilling the fluid contained therein.
