misa wont let me look properly but cant see any  ;D 

Difficult to see Gill if whiskers are same colour as fur as only a group of maybe 3 or 4 of them on each leg.  It's easier to feel for them as they seem to be longer than fur and texture not os soft as fur of course.

They are more just above the inner elbow Gilly..... ;)

Yes I have seen these before Rosella as I clip a few of the cats nails, so I give them quite a lot of leg rubbing to have them at ease with me touching their legs/feet!  ;)

Thank heavens they are cats as I would'nt touch their feet if they were human!  :sick:

I'm not far off 50 and have lived with puds all my life (often 3 or more at a time) so how come I've only just noticed?   :shocked:

Dinah is a black and white girl and most of her whiskers are white so they stand out and are really rather long.  I thought she was unusual and wondered if she had passed them on to the girls.  Both girls have them so I checked Noni, then Freddie and yup them too only shorter (not possible to check Billy  :shify:)

So who else will admit to not noticing this before on their puds but can see them now?
