Fun Facts about Whiskers

The scientific name for whiskers is “vibrissae.”

A cat’s whiskers are precisely as long as the widest part of its body on either side—allowing the cat to determine whether or not it can fit into a space it is headed towards.

A cat will walk in a lopsided manner if you trim the whiskers on one side of its face (this is anecdotal—if you truly love cats you will not try this!)

Rodents have hypersensitive whiskers that can detect even the smallest movement of air.
