Probably, all cat owners already know that you cannot trim your pet’s whiskers – this is an organ that has a special significance in the life of the pet.
But sometimes we can notice how the mustache falls out and there is much less of it. Let's figure out what reasons can lead to such a phenomenon.
Enemy attack
If there are several pets in the house, it is quite possible that the cat's whiskers died a heroic death during a fight (game) with another cat or dog.
Hormonal background
If there have been changes for the worse not only with the whiskers, but also with the fur, which has become dull and disheveled, and the weight jumps back and forth, it is possible that the cause lies in hormonal imbalances. The solution should be sought in consultation with a veterinarian.
Feed
A lack of nutrients in the food can also affect the health of the whiskers. In addition, the animal's skin and fur become dry, and the gums become pale.
Infection
The cause of damage to the whiskers may also be hidden in attacks by parasites or bacteria. In this situation, it is worth contacting a veterinarian.
