Hi fellow cat lovers!!
Loving this site!
I'm normally all over sharing cat photos but I don't actually have any photos for this, yet!! I'll try to get some to illustrate my point!! [emoji]128512[/emoji][emoji]128578[/emoji][emoji]10084[/emoji]️
We have 3 cats, 2 are Maine Coon kittens. Our youngest, Mojo, is a beautiful fluffy white and tabby mix, with mostly white whiskers!
I've not read loads about whiskers, I thought they grew to the width of the cat and then as they are sensitive it helps cats judge which places are safe and too narrow for them to go into.
I read something the other day that said they did a whole lot more than that; will do more research.
Anyway. Normally all our cats whiskers go straight out like you'd expect.
Yet just in the last few days we've noticed his whiskers pointing down under his chin?! Not directly down but sort of like a walrus?! Lol yes really!!
Can cats move their whiskers like that?! They stay like that for at least an hour not that ive timed it! *a while*
I'll try to take some photos when I can [emoji]128578[/emoji]
