Feeding & Hydration Corner Reset: 12-Minute Clean & Supply Refresh

Eating and drinking should feel safe, clean, and calm — for pets as much as humans. But feeding corners often become neglected: water bowls stain, food bits scatter, mats get grimy. A short reset preserves hygiene and comfort.

This 12-minute Feeding & Hydration Corner Reset uses essentials from Paws & Claws Corner — including Feeding Bowls & Mats, Storage & Organization, and pet-safe cleaning items — keeping meals clean, fresh and orderly.

Step 1 (3 minutes) – Remove bowls and clear feeding zone

• Take out food and water bowls: Empty water, discard leftover wet food or dry food crumbs.
• Remove feeding mat or tray: Lift mat or tray and shake out crumbs or debris into trash or return to food storage container.

Step 2 (5 minutes) – Clean bowls, mat, and surrounding floor

• Wash food and water bowls thoroughly: Use warm water and mild pet-safe soap, rinse well so no soap residue remains.
• Wipe or wash feeding mat/tray: Clean mats according to material — wipe for plastic/vinyl, wash fabric mats if washable.
• Sanitize floor under feeding area: Use cleaning spray or wipes from Cleaning & Odor Control collection, especially if water or food splashed.

Step 3 (4 minutes) – Refill, reorganize supplies & finalize station

• Refill water bowl with fresh, clean water: For hydration and cleanliness — change water daily for best hygiene.
• Refill dry food or treats into sealed containers: Store in Storage & Organization containers to keep freshness and avoid pests.
• Replace feeding mat and bowls neatly: Ensure mat lies flat and bowls are stable to avoid spills, sliding, and messes.
