Universal silicone can lid covers

Why this product is in the Depot

I included these universal lids because keeping wet food fresh and appetizing is essential for senior dogs who might have a more selective appetite. For dogs on partial-can diets or those who eat smaller, more frequent meals, these lids maintain the moisture, texture, and flavour of opened food while eliminating the need for messy plastic wrap or secondary containers.

How I use it

I use these daily in my routine with Maya. Every morning, I give her  pills hidden in a small bite of wet food, and I use a lid to keep the rest of that can fresh for the next day. I also use them for her canned pumpkin; having a lid on it in the fridge ensures it stays moist and ready for her next meal.

Why I recommend it

I recommend them because they are a simple, sustainable, and hygienic solution for the kitchen. Most are made of flexible, BPA-free silicone that fits several different can sizes. They prevent food odours from spreading in your fridge and, most importantly, they ensure that the last bite of the can is just as fresh as the first, which helps prevent food waste.

Considerations

  • Universal Fit: Most covers are designed with multiple internal rings to fit standard small, medium, and large pet food cans.

  • Dishwasher Safe: For easy clean-up, look for silicone versions that can be tossed right into the dishwasher.

  • Airtight Seal: Ensure you press down firmly around the edges to create a proper seal, keeping the moisture locked in.
