I use six inch flowerpot saucers for both their food and water. They are very shallow and hard for them to tip up.
To keep it stable in their feeding station, I’va a little block of wood with a large hook in it and there’s a small hole in the rim of their dinner saucer, to which I attach it. The block of wood is outside the plastic feeding station, so they can’t tip the bowl up or move it.

feeding station

As I use the lid of the box as a floor for the feeding station, it’s quite obvious that sometimes when what’s going in today at one end, yesterday’s is coming out the other end at the same time!
It’s also obvious that to get at the food on the far side of the dish, it’s quite happy to stand in the water saucer.

As it’s very hot, I’ve left a 12″ pot saucer full of water near their home as a paddling pool
