To maintain the longevity and appearance of ceramic pet bowls, handwashing is recommended. Products like the Pet Bowl Pink are best cleaned with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using abrasive cleaning tools and harsh chemicals, as these can damage the glaze and decorative elements. After washing, thoroughly dry the bowls to prevent any moisture damage or staining. For metal stands or wood accents, like those in the Pet Bowl Double Blue, wiping with a damp cloth and drying immediately is advisable to prevent any rust or deterioration.
