Do any of the Pet Food Brands Do Measuring Cups with a Lid now?

When I first started feeding Burns they did, just the normal plastic type cups you get but with clear plastic lids on which I found really handy - to save the next day's food smelling in the kitchen!

They stopped doing them a while ago now so we have their new measuring cups but still use the really old tatty lids on them!

Have any of you had these from any of the other brands?

Or come across any sort of small (ie one days food) plastic containers you can buy with a lid?

Thanks! :)

    I don't know what volume one day's food is but you could try the poundshops.


    We got tiny containers for portions of catfood in Poundland.

    I use those too :D

    They are great for portioning Mia's big tins of wet food and freezing it into individual portions (which she loves just as much as straight out the tin!)

    I did see some slightly bigger tubs with click & lock lids at £stretcher the other week which might do & weren't very expensive (they came in a pack of 3)

    Thank you both!

    She is only a small dog for just enough for 100-120g! Will see what they have in poundland!

    You could measure the amount you want to feed, then put it into any lidded plastic cup and put a mark on it to show the future fill level.
