Whisker fatigue causes stress and overstimulates their senses. Using a flat bowl or plate will relieve this issue and allow your cat to eat all their food without stress.

    I have a whisker friendly dish and my cat still does this. My cat just likes company when he eats and he’ll meow at you to come join him. He digs in as soon as I sit down with him at his bowl. Just a little weirdo butt.

      Not really weird. It’s a survival thing. He wants you to watch over him while he’s vulnerable and eating.

        Yeah one of our 2 cats seems to enjoy eating more with company so most of the time I’ll stand there and be lookout for him so he’s comfortable.

      My cat will come and tap me a couple of times with his paw to get my attention, then wander to his food bowl. He just wants me to pet him while he eats. It’s the cutest thing.
