A handle 7 is provided on each of the two opposing side panels 3, symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the pet bowl. The handles 7 are fixedly installed on the seam edge 4 inside the side panel 3. Three buckles are provided on the left and right seam edges 4 where the handles 7 are located. Three female buckles 5 are provided on the left seam edge 4 of the bowl body 2, and three female buckles 6 are provided on the right seam edge 4 of the bowl body 2. When the seam edge 4 is folded down, the female buckles 5 of this bowl body can precisely align and engage with the female buckles 6 of the other bowl body. Similarly, the female buckles 6 of this bowl body can also precisely align and engage with the female buckles 5 of the other bowl body. That is, the bowl body 2 can be extended and connected to other bowl bodies 2 from left to right.

[0048] Two male buckles 5 are provided on the front and back sides of the sewn edge 4, and two female buckles 6 are provided on the outer wall of the side baffle 3 below the front and back sewn edges 4. When the sewn edge 4 is folded down, the male buckles 5 can be precisely aligned and fastened with the female buckles 6, so that the basin 2 remains vertical and stable.

[0049] The base plate 1 and side panels 3 are made of PP / PE double-sided composite fabric, which is stain-resistant, waterproof, and tear-resistant. Furthermore, the product offers a variety of colors and patterns to choose from, and can be customized to suit different home styles and personal preferences, meeting individual needs.

[0050] This embodiment can be used as a cat litter box as a preferred embodiment. First, take out the folded pet box and lay it flat. Unfold the four side panels 3 outwards to a vertical position. At this time, the sewn edge 4 at the top of each side panel 3 needs to be folded down, as shown.
