Like with anything new, my cat looked at me and his new bowl with question marks in his eyes. It took him a day to figure out it was OK to eat from it. I have a bowl downstairs and one upstairs and both bowls are empty when I get up in the morning! He loves eating from them! These bowls are great!!

Lexi R.Lexi R.: I have 4 rescue dogs. Two with mouth issues. One with a severe underbite and one with a tongue out and barely any teeth. Finding the right bowl has been a nightmare. I’ve tried MANY bowls. The one with tongue struggled the most. Couldn’t properly scoop up food. It took him forever. He has bad hand-eye (tongue-eye?) coordination. This kitty bowl was an immediate game changer. He ate his food in a timely matter and didn’t make a mess. Consider for your silly pooches.

Cher C.K.: I was debating buying this or a similar ceramic plate with handles (not by CatGuru). I went with this in the end, as reviews lamented how fragile the other plate was. And I am so glad I did!
My kittens have been wary about eating from their stainless steel bowls. It became such a problem that I had to hand feed them and use a spoon/fork to bring the food right up to their mouths. Clearly, they were hungry, but I had no idea why they were reluctant to eat. Now I know! Whisker fatigue!
I am ANNOYED that I didn't get this sooner! Could have saved me a lot of time trying to get my kittens to eat.
These are sturdy, they don't move around and my cats can see their food clearly, it's soooo great. They eat well off it and I have a lot of space to catch dropped food.
It's also stupid easy to clean, as the ripples are more like smooth bumps. Unfortunately, as stated by one reviewer, if your cat licks all the time and is a messy eater, more defined, "sharper" ridges will be suitable, like a lick mat.
But for my cats, these are fantastic. I'm retiring their bowls and switching 100% to these. :)

A Person: With this dish, the bits of food Cat D noses off the rim of the bowl get trapped by the CatGuru “Table”’s rim & I have to separate both pieces to scoop perfectly good food back into Cat D’s dish.
With the Cat Guru “Torus”, that problem disappears. Twice the price though, and available in one color though, so I hope CatGuru restocks VERY soon!
I adore this dish because it came in a pair so I could get started with the new concept of product matching ‘feeding mat’, ‘table’ to elevate, ‘dish that doesn’t touch sensitive whiskers’.
Cats A and C also have minor whisker sensitivity issues, but we’re content to lump it and shrug it in life. Then we got a new, young, newbie, with whiskers so sensitive he was getting weird and jumpy. I tried a few solutions of tilted and ‘no-spill’ but they were imperfect fixes. CatGuru makes Cat D: “HAPPY”.
Spunky and playful again, instead of needlessly concerned about food issues other cats don’t give a tail-flick about (like his obsessive ownership of a particular dish: other cats honor it and don’t give a tail-flick about his weirdness either way - it’s important to him, right?...

Izzy: My cat has incredibly long whiskers and like all cats is at risk for whisker fatigue so we wanted to get her something that will work
It works well and the mat came with stood her from dragging it across the floor. Will certainly last an eternity

david silburtdavid silburt: I've never seen a cat accept something new so quickly. They usually suspect anything new might be some kind of evil human trick -- especially my new rescue cat, who took six months to fully accept the cat cave bed I had shipped in from Nepal. But this new food bowl? Walter was on it like white on rice. Whisker-stress relief must really be a thing. He only paused briefly to look back at me and say (with the look): "Why'd it take you so long to get one of these in here?" He has a point. (BTW, be sure to get the elevated stand too.)

Adrienne E: We bought these to replace the plastic plates we were using, after our cat got feline acne on his chin.
The dishes have some ribbing, with keeps the food from sticking too much, and letting the cats eat easily.
I wish there were 2 cutouts on the sides of the bowls to make it easier to pick up and the edge of the bottom of the bowl is a bit sharp. A rubberized edge would be preferable to the silicone tray they come with.

AnneAnne: I purchased the two pack stainless steel ‘whisker relief’ bowls because in a regular dish my cat was only eating the top part of his wet food and never finished it. So I watched him eat a few times and it dawned on me that maybe he didn’t like his whiskers touching the dish. I had never heard of whisker stress because all of my previous cats never had a problem with this. I’m so glad I came across these ‘stress free’ eating bowls. Since using these my cat eats all of his wet and dry food. In the picture I provided you can see that one bowl is elevated on the CatGuru stand/table also available for about $18.00 I am so pleased with these that I have ordered two more stainless steel bowls and two more cat stands. It’s a bit pricy but they will last forever and they’re worth every penny. Thank you CatGuru.

D Johnson: This is the best cat bowl I have ever used. Right now we have kittens so I am using these bowls on the floor but I did buy the platform to raise them up later when the cats get bigger. What I love is that the ridges in the bowl keep the kibbles inside the bowl and not pushed over the edge onto the floor. Amazing! Love the bowls.
