Pet Food Container
A pet food container provides a bottom surface and a sidewall extending upwardly from and around the exterior of the bottom surface for forming or defining a feeding area within the pet food container. Pet food is inserted inside the feeding area and then equally spread across the entire surface area of the bottom surface of the feeding area forming a single or shallow layer of pet food within the pet food container. The pet food is then consumed by the pet food within the pet food container. The pet food is then consumed by the pet in many small bites of pet food from the single or shallow layer in the feeding area until the pet food is gone or the pet is finished eating. The pet food container further provides walls and curved surfaces to force the pet food back into the feeding area if displayed by the pet during feeding. Also, feet are provided to the bottom of the pet food container to prevent the pet food container from being pushed along the floor or moved by the pet during feeding.

APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING FILTERED AND DISINFECTED WATER
A combination micro-filtration halogen apparatus safely delivers drinking water by metering doses of concentrated aqueous iodine into a filtered water supply contained within a chamber. Untreated water is poured into the water filter column that allows for gravity to force the water through filters and the filtered or purified water depending on the filters is stored within a lower chamber of the column for disinfection. An aqueous iodine roller metering system controls the amount of iodine dispensed from an aqueous iodine container to the filter column. Turning the roller mechanism accurately meters a selected dose of concentrated aqueous iodine from the iodine container into the lower chamber of the water column. The active residual iodine disinfectant kills microbes in the filtered or purified water making it safe to consume and prevents recontamination. The iodinated drinking water also provides for essential daily human micronutrient requirements.
