Sam enjoys Dr. Catsby’s Feline Remedies Bowl for Whisker Fatigue
Whisker Fatigue. It’s reached crisis levels in our country. I’m not talking about Tom Selleck’s trademark mustache or Duck Dynasty’s shaggy beards. I’m talking about feline whiskers bumping the side of food bowls when they eat.
Cat whiskers or vibrissae (if you want to get technical), are so sensitive they can identify subtle changes in air currents. (Top that Willie Nelson.) So you can imagine how uncomfortable it is to continually bump these sensitive external organs against a poorly design food bowl.
My kitty crew have been eating from supposedly whisker-friendly bowls for years, but there were still problems. They eat from the center of the bowl and push the kibble to the side of the bowl where they can’t reach it.
Enter Dr. Catsby’s Feline Remedies Bowl for Whisker Fatigue. (In the spirit of full disclosure, the company sent the Rainbolt Test Kitties a sample bowl and even offered a free bowl for one lucky reader. I’ll talk about that at the end of this article. I get lots of product samples, but only post the ones that will benefit my readers and their kitties.)
Maybe my portly kitties should continue to eat from their old bowls. It might help them lose weight.
My elderly Siamese-mix Sam has food allergies and must eat food that costs $75 a bag. *Sigh* Until now I’ve fed him in a supposedly whisker-friendly stainless steel bowl. Every 30 seconds I have to shake the bowl to bring the kibble back to the center. I didn’t realize how his bowl was preventing him from a pleasant dining experience. The Dr. Gatsby’s bowl allows Sam to concentrate on eating while I concentrate on guarding him from the Meow Marauders who want to share his food.
I love the bowl. Sam loves the bowl. He no longer has to hold his whiskers against his face when he dips down to eat. Not only does Dr. Catsby prevent Sam’s whisker fatigue, he can reach his food without assistance.
Dr. Gatsby’s bowl features a six-inch wide, shallow, but rounded opening. The stainless steel bowl is dishwasher safe at any temperature. It has a detachable rubber base that prevents travelling bowl syndrome.
Dr. Catsby’s Feline Remedies Bowl retails for $ 19.99. You can buy it directly from Dr. Catsby himself.

I always wondered why my cats ate straight down to the bottom of the bowl and did not eat the food on the sides. Thanks!
We have one kitty in a house full of dogs (4 to be exact). Even though she plays & sleeps with her doggy siblings, I’m sure that Twix would love less stress in her life with this bowl. Thank you for the opportunity to enter!
It looks great hope I can get one soon!!!
My cat has special food for hyperthyroidism and it’s expensive! If this bowl can keep food from being pushed out and being wasted, my wallet and my cat will be happier and healthier.
MK,

Had no idea about the whiskers!! Great idea!!
Honestly, I had never given this a thought, but if it improves our kitties dining experience and encourages them to eat their grain-free kibble, it’s sure worth a try!
This beats the shallow small flat bowls we use as well as sometimes bread plates feeding is a challenge especially with out big Turkish Van boy. He gets fed several times a day because the bowls we have are small
