Some cats don't like to put their faces in bowls. It pushes on their whiskers, which repeated daily can cause them pain or irritation. That's why they refuse to eat anything but the center of the bowl, where the pressure on their whiskers is the least

Try feeding them on a small plate or shallow bowl

(You might also see cats pawing their food onto the floor, then eating it. Same reason)

Wake up, people. Whisker fatigue is REAL.

I do a really shallow bowl and my cat leaves me alone until the kibble is completely gone. Crumbs and all.

I wish mine were the same. Mine just make more mess and still ask ffor more when the centre is empty…

Sounds like big cat propaganda to me.

Is it really though? My cat puts its whole head in a jar or whatever to get to a drop of water and also constantly rubs cheeks and thus whiskers against absolutely everything

I have a shallow dish for my cat and he still does this... He just doesn't believe seeing the bottom is natural lol.

(Before anyone says anything yes the dish is flat, I bought it for my hedgehog to eat without having to clamber and then had to swap their dishes when he discovered the shallow dish was light enough for him to toss around for fun lol)

my cats just dumb and can't figure out that there's more on the other 1/4 of the bowl under her chin. If I rotate the bowl she'll start nomming but by herself she refuses to walk to the other side of the bowl. I've just accepted that it's part of our routine that it's one of those 'eternal soups' where you keep adding more and I'm sure it's all gone but like what if there's just a bit of kibble from 3 months ago at the bottom
