Can anybody recommend a cat feeding bowl that slows down fast eaters? Available in the UK and not from Amazon please. Please only suggest only those you have actually tried and had success with.

#cats@Kimberley Our two have one of these each:
https://www.surepetcare.com/en-gb/pet-feeder/microchip-pet-feederThey certainly slow our two down (YMMV). There's a definite decrease in the frequency of 'walk-by snacking' due to having to stick their heads near enough to their own feeder, for their 'chip to be detected, before the lid mech raises up. Cat's use 'em without problems. No Amazon necessary 😸😸

#cats@Kimberley I currently feed Toulouse out if this one: https://www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/cats/cat_bowls_feeders/plastic/slow_feed_cat_bowls/1983244?activeVariant=1983244.0 as it works for both dry and wet food. He's a very fast eater with a classic bowl.
I used to feed Alfred out of this one for years: https://www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/cats/cat_toys/miscellaneous/treat_toys/349323?activeVariant=349323.0. He loved it until he decided he never wanted to use it again one day (probably for reasons unrelated to the feeder).
I also quite like this one https://www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/cats/cat_toys/miscellaneous/treat_toys/113182?activeVariant=113182.0, the downside being that it rolls under things, but it is very good at slowing cats down. -

@UrbanDjent thanks, that would also stop the greedy one from stealing the slow eater’s food too!

@Kimberley We've found that both cats now get their own, complete, share of food. It's also really great for their differing dietary needs too.

#cats@Kimberley i can recommend these: https://www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/cats/cat_bowls_feeders/ceramic/1673213?activeVariant=1673213.0
We started to use them 4 years ago.
Easy to clean, easy to eat from, enough space for the whiskers, works with dry and wet food. -

Social Debug: il Crystal Ball e la generazione che sapeva soffiare
Crystal Ball, Slime, Exogini, Palla Pazza, Clic-Clac. Noi soffiavamo in una cannuccia e imparavamo la fisica. La GenAlpha scrolla. Chi è cresciuto davvero?

Mantenere mobile, duttile, l'opinione pubblica permette di attizzarla facilmente, non farla consolidare, batterla col martello della propria violenza, sfruttare tutti i mezzi di controllo e di manipolazione che hanno bisogno di un prodotto malleabile
Se si mantiene caldo un campo, si può mantenerne un altro freddo: invisibile, lontano dall'attenzione, stabile. Il campo del controllo, dei rapporti nascosti
La legittimazione è importante solo nella misura in cui permette di mantenere la posizione

Legittimità è una costruzione di regole, accettate o subite, ma riconosciute come reali
La distruzione di tutto ciò può frammentare ulteriormente i legami sociali in essere, magari per essere ristrutturati a piacimento di altri
Ma chi continua a distruggere può imporsi solo con la forza e la sua esibizione, quindi anche minacce, atti di violenza, guerre
La guerra diventa forza primaria di legittimazione, tenuta sempre attiva per continuare a distruggere e mantenere mobile l'opinione pubblica

La legittimità non è un ordine superiore che scende dal cielo sugli uomini, checché ne dicano alcuni
La legittimità è un riconoscimento dato da un insieme di persone, che sia comunità, massa di persone, o massa di individui nella loro bolla collegati da un tessuto artificialmente sociale
La legittimità è costruita, più raramente spontanea, si esprime e regola con atti comunicativi e assunzione di valori
La legittimità è una cessione di forza per sostenere un progetto

Conway’s Game of Life With Physical Buttons
Conway’s Game of Life excels in its simplicity, creating a cellular automaton on a 2D grid where each cell obeys a set of very simple rules that determine whether a cell is ‘alive’ or ‘dead’. After setting an initial condition the ‘game’ then evolves naturally from there, creating an endless series of patterns as a simplified form of bacterial evolution. Of course, setting an initial state and then watching cells light up or fade away seems like a natural fit for light-up buttons. After struggling with intrusive thoughts related to such a project for a while, [Michal Zalewski] finally gave in, creating a pretty amazing looking result.
Although there is no set size for the game board, [Michal] was constrained by his budget for the selected NKK JB15LPF-JF tactile buttons, resulting in a 17×17 matrix. That’s 289 buttons, for those keeping score, which comes down to over $1,000 over at e.g. Digikey even with quantity-based pricing. Add to this the custom PCB and a Microchip AVR128DA64 squeezed in a corner of said PCB to run the whole show and it’s quite the investment.
Finishing up the PCB, driving the lights is done with a duty cycle as the matrix is scanned along with detecting inputs in a similar manner. This required the addition of MOSFETs and transistors, the details of which can be found in the downloadable project files, along with the firmware source code. In the article a video of the board in action can be watched, allowing one to admire the very pretty wooden enclosure as well.
