Clearly it’s a transmitter. That cat is responsible for exactly 1/5th of all the weird shit you think about.

Lmfao! For all the people worried about me cutting my cats whiskers, he’s a sphynx. Those are his natural whiskers. As for what’s on his head, that was a whisker naturally shed from my other much more floofily endowed cat.

Feel free to check my other posts of these two idiots (said with love) if you want verification.

I'm sorry you're getting so much grief for this. One of my cats has short little whiskers by her mouth and big long whisker eyebrows. Cats are weirdos by default and that's why we love them.

I was curious about the short whiskers (just seeing the post) - thanks for the update! People sure do love protecting the kitties!

Yeah no worries! And for sure. I never thought I could love a creature this much so I get it

Aside from the fact that the "whisker" looks completely edited, what's worse is if you zoom in, it looks as if someone has trimmed back this cat's real whiskers.

That must be a nightmare for this cat.

Why are you trimming your cats whiskers? This brings a lot of stress to your cat. Never do this.

Ya I’m not talking about the whisker sticking out of the fur on his head. I’m talking about the whiskers in his face that appear to be trimmed

Cornish Rex have whiskers like this too. One of my boys never grows any longer than half an inch, the other has a luxurious set of long crazy curly spaghetti whiskers.

I like his short hair and whiskers. I think I'll go shave my cat entirely so he matches and see if YouTube has instructions how to declaw cats at home while I'm at it.

Just kidding, only trying to provoke the concern trolls in here.

From the article you linked:

When it comes to the shortest whiskers, the Sphynx usually has no whiskers at all or very short, brittle ones. As Sphynx cats tend to have a harder time fitting into small spaces, it’s best to keep them safe inside.

How do you know OP cut them?

Thats a good point. I don't.

Just saw the thick hair and assumed it was cut.

Oh - didnt know that was a thing. My bad.

All good, he’s a weirdo cat and some do end bluntly as if they were trimmed. But to be fair, I would be an awful barber considering I would have missed quite a few, lol
