Elevated Pet Bowl Riser – Modular X-Frame Stand — STL Grátis

🐾 Elevated Pet Bowl Riser – Modular X-Frame Stand

This is a simple, sturdy pet (cat or small dog) food bowl riser designed to raise the bowl off the floor for more comfortable feeding and a cleaner eating area.

The stand is made from two identical parts that slide together to form an X-shaped structure. Once assembled, the geometry naturally locks in place through weight and gravity — no fasteners are required for basic use.
That said, optional fixing methods are included if you prefer a more permanent or transport-friendly setup.
