Abstract: A feeding apparatus for allowing an animal to eat and/or drink from a position at which the animal's spine and/or esophagus is aligned includes a first section that provides a feeding surface from which an animal may eat and/or drink, the feeding surface being oriented at an angle relative to the surface on which the feeding apparatus is placed to prevent the animal from looking down and/or to cause the animal to tilt its head back when eating and/or drinking from feeding apparatus. The feeding apparatus further includes a second section that provides a paw surface oriented generally parallel to the surface on which the feeding apparatus is placed and located below the feeding surface. The paw surface provides a surface on which an animal may place its front feet when eating and/or drinking from the feeding surface. The first section and the second section are formed from the same piece of material.

Abstract: A feeding apparatus for allowing an animal to eat and/or drink from a position at which the animal's spine and/or esophagus is aligned. The feeding apparatus includes a vertically adjustable feeding platform having a feeding surface from which an animal may eat and/or drink and may be oriented at an angle relative to the surface of the ground on which the feeding apparatus is placed. The feeding apparatus includes a vertically adjustable first platform located below the feeding platform and providing a paw surface on which an animal may place its front feet when eating and/or drinking from the feeding platform, the paw surface being located above the surface of the ground on which the feeding apparatus is placed. The feeding apparatus includes a member adjustably connected to the vertically adjustable feeding platform, the member supporting the vertically adjustable feeding platform and providing for vertical adjustment of the feeding platform.

Abstract: An elevated pet feeding apparatus including an elevated base, a plurality of legs disposed on a lower surface of the base, a pair of lower support columns disposed on an upper surface of the base, a pair of upper support columns, a pair of pins configured to adjustably mount the pair of upper support columns within the pair of lower support columns, a pair of V-shaped support frames rotatably secured to a top side of the pair of upper support columns, a platform disposed atop the pair of support frames, and a pair of circular apertures disposed in the platform.
