Yeah, my cat used to do this. Sort of. The center of the food would be eaten away but the sides perfectly fine. Showed her how to move the food and she did that until I got her a plate. Now? She just eats a little bit and moves it around and then screams at me. I put it back in the bowl and same thing.
We had one that would push the bowl or plate off the mat and into the middle of the floor.
Replaced the mat with a small plastic food service tray. Which off course proved easier to slide across the floor.
Ignoring the behaviour is the only solution, but it takes cats 2 weeks to believe any behaviour changes are real. Why did we leave to fall for patient predators as pets?

It’s not her bowl. She just turned into a bitch.
