Empty-Bowl-Itis: What It Is and How The Ultimate Cat Dish Can Help
If you are a cat owner, you would be familiar with that perplexing moment when your feline friend stares at a bowl with food still inside, meowing as if it's empty. This phenomenon, affectionately dubbed empty-bowl-itis, is a common frustration among cat parents — and it’s not just picky behaviour!
What Is Empty-Bowl-Itis?
Empty-bowl-itis is what happens when a cat refuses to eat food that’s pushed to the sides of their dish, even if there’s plenty of food left. This often leaves owners topping up the bowl unnecessarily or wasting perfectly good food. But why does this happen?
The Science Behind It
Cats naturally prefer to eat from the centre of their bowl. Their whiskers are highly sensitive, and when they repeatedly touch the edges of a dish, it can cause discomfort known as whisker fatigue. Additionally, cats are instinctively drawn to fresh, accessible food — anything pushed to the sides may seem harder to reach or less appetising.
