Does your cat lose its whiskers?<\/a><\/div><\/li><\/ul>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;9\/12&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>Cats really do have super powers, and these reside right in their whiskers.<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you have the belief that your cat is a little magical but your friends take you for a fool, know that you are exactly right.<br \/>\nFrom now on you can shut them up by proving that what you say is true because cats are really special, almost magical.<\/p>\n<p>Cat whiskers are called vibrissae, and the term comes from the Latin word &#8220;vibrissa,&#8221; which means to vibrate.<\/p>\n<p>The amount of vibrissae can vary by species but in general most cats have between 12 and 24.<\/p>\n<p>Normally, vibrissae are found on the cat&#8217;s snout but also above the eyes, on the chin and also behind the front legs.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"I-baffi-non-sono-dei-semplici-peli\">The mustache is not a mere hair<\/h4>\n<p>They are made of keratin and are much longer, thicker and more sensitive than other hairs.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike the rest of the hairs in the coat, whiskers are located in a deeper area of the skin i.e., the hypodermis, which is surrounded by nerve endings and highly capillarized.<\/p>\n<p>Precisely because they are located in heavily innervated areas, the whiskers have a significant connection with the nervous system and particularly the somatosensory system.<\/p>\n<p>This means that they are a transmission pathway for tactile, proprioceptive, thermal and pain impulses.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"in-che-modo-i-baffi-trasmettono-questi-impulsi\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>How does the mustache transmit these impulses?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Vibrissae act like real radars and first and foremost pick up air displacements.<\/p>\n<p>The stimulus received externally generates a movement transmitted from the whisker to the hair follicle from where it leaves for the brain to be decoded and produce a response.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, therefore, the cat makes contact with its surroundings, senses the presence of something or someone approaching it (a prey or a threat) and avoids obstacles.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"la-lunghezza-dei-baffi-non-e-causale\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>The length of the mustache is not random  <\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>A cat&#8217;s whiskers are the same length as the width of its body.<\/p>\n<p>This measurement is useful for him to know whether or not he can pass in tight spaces.<\/p>\n<p>In general, the chubbier a cat is, the longer its whiskers will be.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"le-vibrisse-continuano-il-loro-lavoro-di-monitoraggio-anche-mentre-il-gatto-dorme\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>Vibrissae continue their monitoring work even while the cat sleeps<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>If you observe your cat while he sleeps, you will notice that with every surrounding noise his ears make barely perceptible movements and his vibrissae throb.<\/p>\n<p>Hearing, smell, and vibrissae remain active, however, and the cat, always alert, reacts immediately to any external stimulus.<\/p>\n<p>This explains how cats can sense even the invisible and are really somewhat magical and absolutely special animals.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"tratta-i-baffi-del-tuo-gatto-con-tutta-l-attenzione-possibile\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>Treat your cat&#8217;s whiskers with as much care and attention as possible<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Above all, never let it occur to you to cut, shorten or tear them.<\/p>\n<p>You would deprive your cat of his sixth sense and make him totally insecure and disoriented.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"il-tuo-gatto-perde-i-baffi\"><span style=\"color: #03548c;\"><strong>Is your cat losing its whiskers?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>You may happen to find your cat&#8217;s vibrissae on the ground from time to time.<\/p>\n<p>Well, know that this is a physiological and completely natural phenomenon.<\/p>\n<p>Just as happens with nails, periodically vibrissae also fall off and are replaced by new ones within a few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>You have nothing to worry about unless you realize that they will not grow back.<\/p>\n<p>If this is the case, it is advisable for you to discuss this with your trusted veterinarian.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you have any questions or concerns, know that at Clinica La Veterinaria, our Staff Veterinary Doctors are always ready and available for examinations and consultations.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>In this regard, we would like to remind you
