YSK: Cats don't like their whiskers touching their food bowl. This is why they beg even if food is still left at the bottom.

Jump

  • Not every cat responds the same, or at all, to stress on their whiskers. Just like people, cats have varrying tolerances to stimulus.

    Anecdotally, my cats would not finish their food in narrow bowls but do now that they eat from flat bowls.

  • There are multiple reasons a cat could be begging for food while some is left, whisker fatigue is just the most common and misunderstood.

  • Cats don't like their whiskers rubbing on the bowl while they eat because it's overstimulating. Use a flat bowl or a plate instead.

    • 💅 Voyager icon design contest — Submissions thread

    Jump

  • These icons and splash screens are inspired by your original icon. I went with a colorful galaxy theme which I thought was fitting with the name, Voyager.

    I'm excited to see all the designs everyone made, and look forward to using Voyager 1.0!

    Icon 1 -- Splash screen 1

    Icon 2 -- Splash screen 2

    Icon 3 -- Splash screen 3
