😻🤪 Fun Fact Friday 😎🤩
Cat whiskers are thicker and coarser than regular fur and have roots that are three times deeper. They are strategically located on the cat’s face to provide sensory equipment to help guide a cat through the day, aiding vision and helping the cat to navigate, much like antennae on insects.
Although the number of whiskers will vary by breed, most cats have 12 whiskers arranged in four rows on each cheek.
