Your not wierd...I've been collecting whiskers for years!!! I have a glass "whisker box" that I store them in. I've got at least 100 in there. They're mostly from my 4 guys, but some are from friends cats as well.

That is so cute! I never even thought of saving the found whiskers, but this is a good way to do it. :D Every now and then I'll find one of Tubby's, but I think that's becaue they are black and just about everything else in the house is white so they are easy to see. I've never found one of Peanut's, but hers are white.... :D

I never thought of it. But I will now! I'll be on the whisker-prowl from now on.

I usually find Pepper's whiskers because they are black but I won't be saving them. :eek: I even found his canine baby teeth but I didn't save these either.

how do you find all those whiskers? I have only found 2 in the whole time I've had cats, and now I have 7 cats!

I look before I vaccum and brian keeps any that he sees for me. I guess my cats lose a lot of whiskers?!

yeah but your cats are all young. I don't think they shed them out at the same rate they do their hair

actually, I think the magnet thing is a really neat idea. I like finding whiskers but it never occurred to me to collect them. I don't know why, I collect eveything else.......LOL

I have found some on blankets when I wash them, but guess I don't pay much attention or I would probably find more.

I have a medicine bag which contains, among other things, cat whiskers. I have them going back to Mischief, who ran away 9 years ago, and RB Smokey the Elder. I even try to get fosters'.
