Maggie is on wet food now, and the fur on the sides of her face are constantly hanging in her food when she eats. Is there a solution? I tried clipping her hair back, that didn't work - i thought about a snood, but that doesn't look like it would help with the fur close to her nose.

What about one of those bowls with a 4" hole, that's the smallest diameter I could find, and it seems like 4 inches would still let a lot of her face hang in the food.

Surely there is something that would help with this. I wash her face with a washcloth, but unless there is some kind of soap/shampoo on it, it doesn't really clean the food residue off, just gets it wet. I can't shampoo her face after every meal. Help, please.
