A bowl designed to avoid cat whisker fatigue

The bowl in the picture is designed to avoid whisker fatigue. It is from Dr Catsby’s Feline Remedies. You can see it is shallow. A cat’s whiskers do not touch the side of the bowl. This avoids the risk of them being stimulated. This in turn avoids the cat receiving inappropriate signals via his/her nervous system while eating. The signals can be uncomfortable for a cat. This can result in the cat becoming a finicky eater. One cat owner says that her cat became fearful of the feeding bowl and she put it down to whisker fatigue.
