The upper end of the bottle lid has a flexible bowl member which is capable of being selectively unfolded or downfolded, wherein the bottom portion of the bottle lid is connected with the bottle body. The bottle lid comprises a movable blocking arrangement. An upper end of the movable blocking arrangement is connected to the liquid port of the bottom portion of the flexible bowl member and the lower end of the movable blocking arrangement is connected to a supplying pipe in the bottle body. The functions of the portable bottle for pet integrates bottle and bowl, providing a good ability of preventing leaking out, sealing during porting, blocking water during drinking, and enabling water flowing back to the bottle body so as to reduce the waste of water. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A portable bottle for pet, comprising: a bottle body, made of flexible material adapted to be easily deformed

movable blocking arrangement, having an upper end connected to said liquid port of said bottom portion of said flexible bowl member and a lower end connected to said supplying pipe located inside of said bottle body, wherein said movable blocking arrangement comprises a nozzle and a rotating switch, wherein said nozzle has an upper end and a lower end and comprises a blocking support at a top portion thereof, wherein said upper end of said nozzle has one or more outlets communicating with said supplying pipe and is arranged to communicate with a bottom portion of said flexible bowl member and pass through said bottom portion of said flexible bowl member, wherein said lower end of said nozzle is connected to an upper end of said supplying pipe, wherein said rotating switch is installed on said upper end of said nozzle and provided on said blocking support, wherein said rotating switch has one or more blockers provided at a bottom portion thereof corresponding to said one or more outlets of said nozzle respectively and is configured to be pushed up by air pressure while said bottle body being squeezing with a pressure such that said one or more blockers are raised above said one or more outlets of said nozzle to open said one or more outlets of said nozzle for dispensing a liquid in said bottle body therethrouqh, whereby the liquid in said bottle body is able to flow out through said one or more outlets into said flexible bowl member upfolded in said liquid container form until said rotating switch is moved down under a weight of the liquid in said flexible bowl member due to gravity to block said one or more outlets of said nozzle by said one or more blockers, and that while the pressure squeezing said bottle body is released, a remaining liquid in said flexible bowl member flows into said supplying pipe through said one or more outlets under air pressure and said rotating switch moves down due to gravity and said one or more blockers fall back to under said one or more outlets of said nozzle so as to block said one or more outlets of said nozzle. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The portable bottle for pet, as recited in claim 1, wherein said flexible bowl member is made of flexible material such that said flexible bowl member is able to be selectively downfolded to a first cover form covering an upper portion of said bottle body or upfolded to extend upwards from said bottle lid to a second liquid container form. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The portable bottle for pet, as recited in claim 1, wherein said one or more outlets are

circumferential side of said upper end of said nozzle. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The portable bottle for pet, as recited in claim 1, wherein said flexible bowl member comprises one or more step seals provided at a side of said bottom portion thereof corresponding to said one or more outlets of said nozzle, wherein said one or more step seals are configured to align with said one or more outlets of said nozzle by turning said rotating switch such that the liquid stored in said bottle body is sealed inside, thereby when said one or more outlets of said nozzle are disaligned with said one or more step seals by turning said rotating switch so that said one or more step seals do not block said one or more outlets of said nozzle. ### Claim 6 (depends on 2) The portable bottle for pet, as recited in claim 2, wherein said flexible bowl member comprises one or more step seals provided at a side of said bottom portion thereof corresponding to said one or more outlets of said nozzle, wherein said one or more step seals are configured to align with said one or more outlets of said nozzle by turning said rotating switch such that the liquid stored in said bottle body is sealed inside, thereby when said one or more outlets of said nozzle are disaligned with said one or more step seals by turning said rotating switch so that said one or more step seals do not block said one or more outlets of said nozzle. ### Claim 7 (depends on 3) The portable bottle for pet, as recited in claim 3, wherein said flexible bowl member comprises one or more step seals provided at a side of said bottom portion thereof corresponding to said one or more outlets of said nozzle, wherein said one or more step seals are configured to align with said one or more outlets of said nozzle by turning said rotating switch such that the liquid stored in said bottle body is sealed inside, thereby when said one or more outlets of said nozzle are disaligned with said one or more step seals by turning said rotating switch so that said one or more step seals do not block said one or more outlets of said nozzle. ### Claim 8 (depends on 4) The portable bottle for pet, as recited in claim 4, wherein said
