Abstract
A device for a baby bottle has an absorbent panel attached to a collar. The collar removably mounts in a surrounding engagement to a cap of the bottle and can be absorbent for enhancing the total absorbing capacity of the device. The panel extends from the collar toward a mouthpiece of the bottle, for gently compressing against a baby's chin when the baby is suckling from the bottle. After feeding, the panel and the collar wipe clean the baby's mouth region and are washable for reuse.
