Award-winning
CanadianCat food bar "Cat Diner", with separate cat grass bowl
Top Original: Wagner Pet Products Group, Geilenkirchen, Germany
Below Plagiarism: Distribution: German discounter and (s)a German supplier / theme promoter
The original: Smart (protected) design, well thought-out ergonomics, high-quality appearance. The idea, shapes, colors and arrangement of the elements were adopted almost 1:1. The low price, a fifth of the original, is reflected in the materials and fine construction. The food bowls in the plagiarized version are not made of dimensionally stable and heat-resistant ceramic, but of cheap plastic. The bowls do not sit securely in the recess, i.e. they slide back and forth uncontrollably and rattle loudly when eating. Due to the clear design infringement and in the interests of a quick, unbureaucratic settlement, the supplier / theme promoter of the German discounter was prepared to settle the case amicably out of court.
