A liner for animal feeders designed to receive dry and moist food and liquid beverage to be consumed by the animal. Most animal feeders usually comprise a tray or dish in the nature of a bowl to receive the dry food or liquid. The liner is sized and shaped to fit over the bowl and has a base wall and an enclosing side wall with an open top. The side wall integrally merges into a rim and a downwardly struck peripheral flange with the latter to engage the exterior surface of the animal feeder sidewall. A plurality of liners are nestable in each other and are capable of being packaged in the nested condition. The liners are formed of a paper type material such as a wax-coated paper. By virtue of this construction, they are made waterproof and also capable of being effectively and easily conformed to the shape and size of the bowl with which they are used.

[ Having thus described the invention, what I desire to claim and secure by Letters Patent is:] [1.] A removable and disposable liner for use with an animal feeder of the type having an exterior wall defining an interior cavity for receipt of food or liquid and a rim thereon being sized to fit a large number of different pre-existing animal feeders, said liner comprising:a) an enclosing continuous side wall sized to fit within the cavity of the animal feeder and snugly engage an inwardly presented continuous wall which defines said cavity;b) a peripheral exterior flange on said wall of said liner for engagement with the exterior wall of said animal feeder to thereby snugly but nevertheless removably retain said liner on said animal feeder;c) a rim on said side wall of the liner and being connected to the side wall of the liner and to the peripheral exterior flange and extending therebetween;d) said liner being formed of a foldable and bendable material which is flexible and relatively crushable and generally non-flaccid and which is also non-toxic to animals using the animal feeder and which is sufficiently thin so as to be crumbled and disposable and easily bent to conform to and fitted to a conventional animal feeder; ande) an opening in the rim of said liner and being located to communicate with a like opening in the rim of the animal feeder to receive a removable clip sized and shaped to extend through said aligned openings and thereby removably but retentively hold said liner on the animal feeder.
