🐾 Feline Fact #2: Whiskers Do More Than Wiggle

Whiskers — or vibrissae — aren’t just for style. They’re powerful sensory tools that help your cat: 🔹 Navigate tight spaces (they’re roughly as wide as the cat’s body!) 🔹 Detect tiny air movements, even in the dark 🔹 Gauge distances and prey movement with incredible accuracy 🔹 Express mood — forward = curious, back = scared or annoyed ⚠️ Never trim or cut your cat’s whiskers! It can cause disorientation, stress, and even affect their balance. So next time you admire those elegant little face strands — know they’re a high-tech tool built by nature. ✨ #Pets #Cats #FunFact
