A cat uses his whiskers to determine whether an entrance is wide enough for him to pass. With no whiskers, he will not have that warning and is much more likely to get into places he cannot get out of. Whiskers grow back very slowly, so one could expect a long series of extrications from small and inaccessible places like the insides of walls and furniture while they are growing back.
I dont know if its the same with dogs but my cats wiskers got cut off. It didnt seem to hurt him and they grew back in about a week.
Cats whiskers are used to let the cat know if they will fit through a area. If a cats whiskers are cut it throws off their sense of balance also.
A cat can't balance without its whiskers. Cutting a cats whiskers off is cruel and you'd have to be a complete jackass to do that to an animal
If you cut or trim a cats whiskers they will lose their scence of direction. So they could possably lose their way home; And end up finding your cat somewhere!!!! (DEAD) HA HA HA HA HA HA
Cats who have no tails can still twist about and land on their feet. There are cats who are born without tails, and cats who get their tails caught and cut off, and they can do it. But if the cat had a tail that is just fine, don't cut it off.
Do not cut your rabbit's whiskers because they are important sensory tools that help a rabbit navigate in front of them (a blind spot). However, in the accidental case that you do, do not worry; the whiskers will grow back.
Its impossible for a dog to not have whiskers unless someone cut them off like they dont have common sense
I believe so, but it would be hard because cats need their whiskers to feel how big a space is and if they can get through it. cat whiskers are the same width of the cats body, so I'm guessing they do grow to mach the cats body width
The Mother cats chew them off to "low down" the kittens.
Cats use their whiskers as a guideline for the size of their head. Say a cat is trying to fit through a hole and his whiskers rub, then he knows that he will get stuck if he continues into the hole.
If the whisker was cut, yes it will grow back. Sometimes if a whisker is burned it will not grow back.Whiskers are hair shafts, just like the rest of a cat's fur. Like every single hair on a cat's body they will periodically shed and then regrow.So yes their whiskers grow back. :)NO! THEY DO NOT GROW BACK! Just kidding. They do grow... :)yes they do
Cats can lose their whiskers naturally during shedding season or due to general wear and tear. Whiskers may also break or fall out if the cat is engaged in activities that put stress on them, such as rough play or squeezing into tight spaces. Whiskers will grow back over time, as they are essential for a cat's sensory perception.
