Trivia About Cat Whiskers

broken image

Whiskers are one of the prominent features of cats and other animals that are part of the cat family. Those whiskers found around your cat's nose are quite obvious, but are you aware that there are many other whiskers found in other parts of your cat's body? There are whiskers present in cat’s eyebrows, with some cats having longer eyebrow whiskers compared to other feline breeds. Whiskers can also be found in a cat’s jawline and in the back of their legs. These whiskers are less known and are unobtrusive. You won’t know they’re there if you are not aware of their existence. Whiskers on various parts of the body are there for a certain reason. They are important in helping a cat navigate even in darkness as well as detect changes in the air flow and weather pattern.
