Omg please helppp me im worried!!?

Question

i trimmed my cats whiskers!! i dont know why will this hurt her??! nothing is going to happen rite?? they arnt that much shorter and she hasnt been walking weird yet ..... PLLZZZ HELP ME!!

Answer 1

no ive cut my cats hairs nothing is going to happen just like when you cut your hair nothing happens

Answer 2

She should be OK just don't do it again. Its affects a cats ability to sense its surroundings. They use them to feel and its a nerological thing with them

Answer 3

I hope your cat is an in door only cat.  Missing whiskers would make a cat a little disoriented.  they are used for navigating and depth perception to some degree.  They help a cat know where they can fit and where the don't.

But there is nothing about missing whiskers that will harm her.  But the disorientation may cause her to get in trouble.  Don't let her get in trouble, keep her inside.

Answer 4

so why did you cut them in the first place? please respond, id like to hear this.

okay, then. you made a mistake. everybody does. at least you didnt come on here and ask if you could cut them because they were ugly. they guy meant dewhisker. your cat will be fine. just dont do it again. its kind of like if we lost a little bit of our arm(but it wasnt painful) but it grew back.

Answer 5

They will grow back, but don't do that again.  :)

People don't realize, but whiskers are part of a cat's nervous system.  They help them feel their way around and judge their surroundings. They are important.  'Trimming' may not affect that, but a.) they'll look funny, and b.) why risk it?  :)  When they are completely removed (accident or ignorance - and I mean the true definition of being unaware - or cruelty), it can really hurt the cat's senses until they grow back.

Answer 6

Trimming your cats whiskers is definitely not a good idea, you are not supposed to trim them.   Check out this link: http://www.fleascontrol.com/cat-whiskers...

This is a link to help you in treating her while her whiskers grow back:

I am simply going to suggest that you not trim her whiskers again.  By the way I initially considered doing the same thing until I Googled info on whiskers.  When in doubt about something I Google it.  Good luck to the both of you.

Answer 7

OMG you butchered the kitty ...what were you thinking.  Don't worry they will grow back.Just don't do it again cause she or he trusted you with the scissors. LOL

Answer 8

Ogg....your cat will be fine. Whiskers help a cat feel their way around in darkness and they will grow back, so don't worry.

Answer 9

why would you do that?! 0_o

ive never heard of anyone trimmering their wiskers...

it shouldn't hurt them... i don't think...

i don't know im not a cat! lol

but yeah i have 11 cats. so i don't think it would do any damage to your cat... they will ways grow back.

Answer 10

Oops cats whiskers are good for balance and getting around in the dark. They'll grow back just don't do it again.

Answer 11
