What is the purpose of the whiskers on squirrels?

Cats have whiskers because they use them to check if they can go through any spaces. Notice that if the cat does not go through some space it is because he/she cannot fit its whiskers, therefore whiskers are the length of a cats body width. Animals use their whiskers to detect how big or small a hole is and if they put their head through it will they be able to get there head back out. i would recommend never to cut an animals whiskers off. Animals with whiskers also use them to assist sight in the dark. That way they don't run head-first into things, indoors or out. It is okay to cut a cat's whiskers, as it will not harm the animal, but it is highly unrecommended. It will unbalance them, they could run into things more often, and it could quite possibly be painful, as there are nerves at the base of the whiskers, so they can definitely feel it. This is one of these "Do not try this home, EVER!" things.


Are dogs whiskers decorative?

No. Dogs, like horses, cats (and many other felines), etc., use their whiskers as receptors. I disagree with trimming horse whiskers because of this. They are natural, and are used to feel around them subtlely. - Kate
