Many cats are accustomed to getting food from a bowl and eating it from the floor.
It is not always clear what this is connected with, especially if the cat is domestic and well-groomed.
You will learn why a cat does not want to eat from plastic bowls from this article.
Of course, the reasons for refusal may include the unfortunate size or width of the bowl, but often the reluctance is related to the material itself.
Plastic is a fairly common and inexpensive material. Its disadvantages include rapid wear and tear, and a tendency to deform and crack.
If the plastic is cracked, bacteria will quickly develop in such places, causing a bad smell. This can be very off-putting to the pet, since cats have a good sense of smell.
