You can find cat-themed measuring cups and cat food scoops on DHgate, but not by typing a single perfect phrase and checking out. The catalog mixes kitchen tools, pet products, and generic measuring cups, and many listings have few or no reviews. A practical way to source cat measuring cups—especially from Australia—is to decide first whether you need cute baking cups or precise pet scoops, then run targeted searches, open several product pages, and treat each one like a spec sheet before you order.
What counts as a “cat measuring cup” and which type you actually need
On DHgate, “cat measuring cup” can mean two different things:
- Cat-themed baking or kitchen cups
These are standard kitchen measuring cups, sometimes marketed with “cat cups” wording or cat-adjacent language. One current example is titled “Baking Tools Kitchen Stainless Steel Measuring Cup Spoon Seasoning Scale (1/4cup 60ml) Cat Cups Reusable Teacups Measuring Cup”. It’s essentially a 60 ml stainless cup, but the title leans on the word “Cat.”
Typical traits on DHgate:
- Volumes like 1/4 cup / 60 ml called out in the title or images.
- Categorised under Other Kitchen Tools or Measuring Tools.
- Sometimes sold as single cups rather than the full 4-8 piece nesting sets you might see in Australian retail.
- Cat food measuring scoops and electronic cups
These are pet scoops designed to portion dry food for cats and dogs. Several DHgate listings use phrases like “cat food,” “cat feeder,” and “pet food measuring scoop” in the title. For example:
- “Pet Food Measuring Scoop Electronic Dog Cat Food Measuring Cup Digital Spoon Scale Kitchen Food Scale with LED Display” (Bathroom & Kitchen Scales category).
- “Pet Food Measuring Spoon Scale Kitchen Digital Suitable for Cat and Dog 240724” (Dog Automatic Feeders category, with a small number of reviews).
- “Cat Food Scale LCD Electronic Dog Food Weighing Cup Pet Feeding Precision Measuring Spoon Digital Display Cat Feeder C260522” (Dog Bowls & Dishes category).
These pet scoops often show weight in grams on a small LCD rather than fixed volume marks like “1/2 cup.” For a pet brand or a multi-cat household in Australia, that can be useful for consistent portions, but it’s not the same as a cute cat-shaped baking set.
Before you search DHgate, decide which you are actually sourcing:
- Home baker or gift buyer? Focus on stainless or plastic cup sets where “cat” is part of the branding or wording.
- Pet owner or small pet shop? Focus on listings with “cat food,” “pet food,” or “feeder” in the title and look for scales or clear ml/gram indicators.
How to search and narrow cat measuring cups on DHgate
A generic “cat measuring cups” search often pulls in lab beakers, plain measuring spoons, and pet gadgets. A more deliberate workflow surfaces better options.
1. Start with two separate searches
Run two searches rather than one:
- For baking: try phrases like `cat cups measuring cup 60ml` or `cat measuring cup stainless`.
This is how you find items like the stainless “Cat Cups” 1/4 cup example above, which lives in kitchen-tools categories rather than pets.
- For pet scoops: use `cat food measuring scoop`, `pet food measuring spoon scale`, or `cat feeder measuring cup`.
These bring up electronic spoons and scoops, such as:
- “Pet cat food weighing electronic scale cat dog pet products measuring spoon cat food dog food measuring weighing spoon” (Others Dog Bowls & Feeders).
- “Pet Food Scale LCD Electronic Precision Weighing Tool Dog Cat Feeding Food Measuring Spoon Digital Display Kitchen Scale” (Measuring Tools).
If your first results page is full of lab-style measuring cups or generic tools such as “100-5000ml Thickened Plastic Measuring Cup with Scale Food Grade Measuring Cup Experimental Measuring Cup Beaker Plastic Cup”, tweak your query to include “cat” or “pet food” explicitly.
2. Use filters and categories to separate kitchen from pet
Once you see a promising result, narrow by category so you’re not mixing very different products:
- For pet scoops, focus on categories such as Dog Automatic Feeders, Dog Bowls & Dishes, Other Pet Supplies, or Cat Litter where pet-measuring tools sit. Examples include:
- “Pet Food Measuring Scoop Food Scale Electronic Dog Cat Feeding Bowl Detachable Measuring Tool Digital Display Weighting Spoon 240723” (Dog Automatic Feeders).
- “Pet Food Measuring Scoop Leak Proof Design for Cats Dogs Universal” (Cat Litter).
- For baking cups, stay inside Measuring Tools, Other Kitchen Tools, or Other Bakeware and skip anything filed under spectrometers or industrial categories. For instance:
- “3Pcs Kits Baking Liquid Measuring Cups PVC Scale Cup Plastic Measuring Volume Beaker Kitchen Baking Tools” (Measuring Tools).
- “Store Cups Measuring Cup Cups Height 22mm Kitchen Laboratory Measurement Measuring Plastic Samples High Quality” (Other Bakeware).
The same clear plastic cup shape can appear under very different categories, so always double-check the category label before deciding how you’ll use it.
3. Read the product page like a spec sheet
Open at least three listings side by side and check:
Capacity and units
- Pet scoops may show ranges in grams in the images but use phrases like “dog cat feeding” in the title. Confirm the available modes (g, oz, ml) in the description.
- Kitchen cups may describe a set, like “8Pcs Measuring Cups and Spoons Set Multipurpose Measuring Spoon kit Tea Coffee Powder Liquid Measuring Cups Kitchen Gadgets Set”, but the title might not list every size. Look for a photo that shows the actual ml / cup labeling.
Material and use case
- Plastic cups such as “Plastic Measuring Cup For Food Cups With Handle Pastry Tableware Kitchen Gadget Sets Water Oil Vinegar Flour Baking Accessories” may be fine for dry ingredients or general kitchen use.
- Stainless options, like the “Cat Cups” 60 ml measuring cup, usually flag that material in the title and may feel more suitable for gifting or a small kitchenware brand.
Reviews and rating box
In several current examples, including the “Cat Cups” stainless measuring cup and multiple pet scoops, the review count shows as 0. One exception in this niche is the digital pet spoon scale suitable for cat and dog food, which has a small number of reviews. If you’re a small Aussie ecommerce seller, that distinction matters—no-review items are more experimental and usually call for a sample order first before you build a product around them.

Evaluating DHgate cat measuring cup options and knowing when to look elsewhere
Once you’ve found a few plausible listings, the harder question is whether DHgate is the right channel at all for your Australian household or business.
For home bakers and cat lovers in Australia
If you just want a cute cat measuring cup set for your own kitchen or as a gift, DHgate currently shows limited explicitly cat-branded baking cups and many generic cups with no reviews. In that situation:
- You may get clearer designs and more review volume on platforms like Amazon or Etsy, or from local Australian retailers such as BigW or specialty kitchen shops, where cat-themed sets are marketed directly as gifts.
- DHgate can still be an option if you spot a design you like and are comfortable with some uncertainty, but expect to read the listing closely and accept that colours, finish, or packaging may not match typical retail presentation.
For small ecommerce or pet businesses in Australia
If you’re sourcing pet food scoops or digital measuring spoons to resell or bundle:
1. Prioritise function over cuteness
For portioning pet food, accuracy, durability, and clear units matter more than a cartoon cat. The digital spoons and cups above are positioned for cats and dogs by title; your job is to confirm the actual weight range, unit options, and plastic quality from the description and photos.
2. Treat low-review listings as tests
Many of the cat food scoops listed have zero visible reviews. That doesn’t make them unusable, but it moves them into “sample only” territory. A cautious path is to order one or a few units, test them against your own kitchen scale, and check packaging before listing them to your customers.
3. Vet the seller profile, not just the product images
A product page might look polished while the seller has little visible history. Use seller ratings, review counts, and transaction indicators (where available) to decide whether you’re comfortable placing even a sample order. If you regularly source multiple products on DHgate, it can help to apply a consistent evaluation process across listings and then adapt it to this more niche cat measuring cup category.
4. Check the real landed cost before you commit
Because many cups and scoops are inexpensive per unit but bulky relative to their value, freight into Australia can erase any margin advantage for small orders. Work through DHgate’s checkout flow to see the delivered cost for your typical quantity before you design packaging or marketing around a specific scoop or cup.
When DHgate is a good fit vs when to walk away
DHgate fits best when:
- You are experimenting with new pet accessories or house-brand kitchen tools, and you’re willing to run paid tests via samples and small orders.
- You value access to international manufacturers and wholesalers more than you value polished branding or heavy review volume, and you are prepared to do your own due diligence.
You may be better off elsewhere when:
- You need a specific, recognisable cat character or licensed design for your measuring cups. Those are more common on branded marketplaces and in local retail than in DHgate’s current lineup.
For additional DHgate platform context, use What DHgate is and how the marketplace works, Find trusted sellers on DHgate, and Review the DHgate order-readiness checklist.
If you decide DHgate is worth exploring beyond cat measuring cups, it can help to understand the marketplace as a whole—how it connects you to international sellers and what that means for risk and control—then bring that context back to this very specific niche of cat-themed and pet-focused measuring cups.
