My cats have singed their whiskers, what should I do?

They aren’t disoriented for long @Dellys. When it happened to my mum’s cat, he only took a few minutes to readjust, and it was the same for my pet rat; she spun around once or twice and then went right back to her business. She just needed a moment to find her bearings with shorter whiskers and she was back to normal in no time!!!

LOL! I didn't know either!

“Technically known as ‘VIBRISSAE’, a cat’s whiskers are a vital asset; without them, they’d be completely lost.

Cats actually have whiskers in places other than just their muzzle. The ones on the back of their front legs, called carpal whiskers, are just as sensitive. Many cats also have whiskers where we have eyebrows. They’re constantly falling out and growing back.

Whiskers vary depending on the breed. A Devon Rex has short, wavy ones, while the American Wirehair’s are coarse, curly, and crinkled like wire.

A cat’s whiskers are incredibly sensitive and serve many purposes. At night, in the dark, they act like antennae to help them avoid bumping into things. They also help them judge wind speed and direction before making a big jump. Cats use them to gauge the width of a gap so they don’t get stuck, and to track down smells carried on the breeze, such as food or a female in season.

A cat will thrust its whiskers forward to touch prey it’s just caught, making sure it’s definitely dead without having to let go. They also use them to greet other cats or to express how they’re feeling.”

You can find the same thing at B&Q...

It's just the tip.
