How many whiskers does a cat have ~ ~ ~

There are 12 whiskers on both sides of a cat's nose, and 12 whiskers is the average. Of course, some cats have more beards. The beards on both sides of the nose are also the longest of all beards.

The root of a cat's beard is connected with a sensory organ called a receptor, which is covered with blood vessels and nerves; Because of this, they can judge the distance, direction and even the surface material with their beards.

Cats' food pots or water bowls get stuck in their beards, which will bring some pressure to their beards, and generally there will be no major problems. However, if the cat's food basin or water bowl is too small and the pressure on the cat's beard is too great, the cat will bite out the feed in the bowl or become unwilling to drink water. Therefore, if the cat at home has a similar situation, it is best to help it change to a bigger bowl.
