Many people associate cats with large eyes, lush whiskers and eyelashes, which give the animal a sly and cute look.
However, if you look closely at a domestic cat, not everyone can say with certainty whether the animal has eyelashes.
Cats are considered a symbol of attractiveness, playfulness and courage. But how do you know if a cat has eyelashes?
Many animals have hair, fur, whiskers – special and very sensitive hairs.
A cat's whiskers help it determine its surroundings. Whiskers are not only on its face, but also above its eyes, on its paws, and on the sides of its body.
How to Find Eyelashes on a Cat
Cats have no eyelashes. The structure of the animal's eyes is similar to the structure of the human eye, but there is one important difference - the absence of eyelashes.
The main function of eyelashes is to protect the eye from dust and foreign objects. But how do cats cope with this if they don’t have eyelashes?
Cats' fur is like one big eyebrow and eyelashes all at once.
The longer the fur, the more protection. So don't think that the long hairs around the eyes of cats are eyelashes - they are fur. Cats don't need eyelashes.
