A water filtering pet bowl assembly comprising

• a bowl including
• a raised drinking water location,
• a bottom to-be-pumped water location having a raised platform, and
• a central channel between the raised drinking water location and the bottom to-be-pumped water location,
• such that, in an in-use operation of the water filtering pet bowl assembly, water flows by gravity flow from the raised drinking water location, through the central channel, and to the bottom to-be-pumped water location;
• a filter assembly positioned above the bottom to-be-pumped water location;
• and
• a pump coupled with the filter assembly and positioned in the bottom to-be-pumped water location;
• wherein, in the in-use operation of the water filtering pet bowl assembly, a base of the filter assembly is positioned on the raised platform,
• wherein the raised platform is made of two segments each including a central base extending in a curved manner to rounded ends at each end of the central base.
