Whisker fatigue causes stress and overstimulates their senses. Using a flat bowl
or plate will relieve this issue and allow your cat to eat all their food
without stress. You can also search for “whisker fatigue” bowls specifically
made for cats. More info

Sorry, but this is pseudo-science bullcrap akin to healing crystals. Whisker fatigue is just some BS a mom group on Facebook came up with to sell products. It has zero scientific backing and frankly I would appreciate not spreading false information like this here. Leave that garbage on reddit
Looks like its real but potentially exaggerated. https://schertzanimalhospital.com/blog/whisker-fatigue-in-cats/
Ranting on a soap box without providing any evidence is very "reddit" of you.
