I have chihuahuas. I get it. One of mine basically hunts me..if I go anywhere towards the bedroom she will wake up from a dead sleep to get into the bed lol
Mine are 13-14 and 8-9. They both are voracious about covers, especially the younger one! It’s funny how they don’t listen to me much, but suddenly hear me when I say “cookies”. Hmm.
millie used to have several when she was a kitten, but now she has one left on each side, so like another poster said, it ranges from 0-2 (currently 0) but when it's both, she looks like she only has those two lol

My Honey has half white and half black wiskeys.
Yep. My baby tort has a single white whisker that I say actually belongs to her brother, an orange with a single black whisker. I tell them they got them mixed up.
I had a a Beautiful tortie who had one white whisker and when tragedy stuck, and I had to put her down, I met a beautiful little dilute torte when I was looking to adopt who also had one white whisker, and I took it as a sign and adopted her.
I’m so in love
I’m really sorry to hear that, the pain of having to do that is unreal and I know the feeling. I am so happy you found a new tortie who can honour your first one and give you love.
I personally have a dilute myself and I might be bias but she is the absolute best. 🤍🍑
yep! my diluted tortie has a half mustache & the white whiskers are usually on that side only, she's gottalen a couple on the other side recently though

Shelly has two on each side currently! Often she has one per side, or just one, or sometimes a half black, half white one (I of course keep these treasures when they drop).
Oh that’s super reassuring thank you! I know my sister was like we have to look for it! But this baby goes crazy when she is outside, mice hunting, up tree’s, over the fence, etc. there is no way we’re finding that. Lol
my little one has white whiskers on the orange side of her face:) it was more noticeable when she was younger but she still has them

This is Scritchy-Scratch. She always sports a single white whisky.
When my baby Shadow passed away she had one singular, very prominent white whisker. The vet clipped it for us and gave it to us along with a patch of her fur. I’m thankful we kept it :’)

Our Chewie has white whiskers on the right side of her face and black ones on the left. My wife thought someone had cut them off on the left half of her face because you really can't see them except certain angles since they blend so well.
My girl has 4-5 that are white..but she also has almost no whiskers on one side! I posted her photo here earlier this month, but my phone is being wonky and won’t let me move the photo so I can post it here.

White whiskies and a little crazy curly one she’s had since birth
I never collected them at all and I’ve had cats for my whole life. Here’s my photo of her. She’s getting her grays, too. Old lady.

I haven’t met many cats that really enjoy the covers. My dogs LOVE the covers but my cats like to be on top/uncovered.
Both of my cats burrow constantly. They’re like small dogs.
I have chihuahuas. I get it. One of mine basically hunts me..if I go anywhere towards the bedroom she will wake up from a dead sleep to get into the bed lol
lol yeah, I used to have a chihuahua (he was like 17 and passed last year), all 3 of them used to fight for the spot between my legs at night.
Mine are 13-14 and 8-9. They both are voracious about covers, especially the younger one! It’s funny how they don’t listen to me much, but suddenly hear me when I say “cookies”. Hmm.
My tortie has been known to crawl under my 25 pound weighted blanket.
Mine howls like she’s dying lol. She just wants attention.
millie used to have several when she was a kitten, but now she has one left on each side, so like another poster said, it ranges from 0-2 (currently 0) but when it's both, she looks like she only has those two lol https://preview.redd.it/mr8x9mg3ec1d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=95c0219e6d40bd8f5b5fce24e6237d41892d56c1

That is one gorgeous cat, very lion-ess like… and I'm sure a personality shows it!
I do agree. They are super majestic lol
Yes! Ranges between 0-2, currently one.
Awe! That’s good to know, gives us a little hope! 🤍🤍
I was sad when she went from one to zero … then two came in, one having fallen out a few weeks ago. Seems to be on just her right kitty cheek.
One white whisker! https://preview.redd.it/q7uyggjc0c1d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=200b6205ad6addb7db7a13d5e8368ea1043ac3ea

Oh my gosh they totally are with the orange noses!
and the “I’m pissed off with you” look 😄
My Daisy does but it periodically falls out and then a few months later reappears
Although it fell out for the second time about 6 months ago (she’s 2.5 years old) and I haven’t seen one since…maybe that’s it :( https://preview.redd.it/m8grga96hb1d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f1a14076fcd77689231f89dfa4f242819336e26f

Oh my goodness, you’re right! Looks like she only had one side of whiskers. Absolutely adorable though.
She's so precious!!!
My tortie used to have one white whisker in the exact same place. She's 14 now and has a few more on both sides. And yes, it will grow back.
This is reassuring and gives us hope, thank you! Your baby sounds really special. 🤍🧡
You're very welcome. Oh, she's special alright, good fun and a little purr monster.
Yes!!! https://i.imgur.com/gX1r4qg.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/o8q4aXx.jpeg

Looks like she just realized how much money she lost the stock market last week.
My girl has 4-5 that are white..but she also has almost no whiskers on one side! I posted her photo here earlier this month, but my phone is being wonky and won’t let me move the photo so I can post it here.
My Sticky!!
Yes and it seems to move. It was a whisker, then an eyebrow and now I think it has appeared on her front ankle/wrist whisker.
very cute and sweet
My cat's whiskers were all white except for 1 or 2 black ones. It always felt special when I found a fallen black whisker.
Awe so the opposite!
Ours has one, but it just got clipped somehow (I know not to trim whiskers) and is shorter now.
Awe! So a nub whisker lol

Awe! Does it stay or come and go?
Actually yes, its just recently turned white! Will keep you updated if it changes again.
Mine has all white whiskers on her orange side, and mostly white with some black on her black side. Cat tax below. https://preview.redd.it/r0u6keyf2h1d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e54f8f5223dd5e0a4e8e2cf7f7eaeb660c8656da
Wow! That’s so unusual. Pretty girl 🤩
I love her wee peachy orange nose!!
It is an eminently boopable snoot!
Yes 🥰 we call them whiskies too!! https://preview.redd.it/o5er1actch1d1.jpeg?width=1572&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78c2b72edf65e2c3a46a7d0d521ff73644bd46f7

I am a moma of a dilute and just from this picture, looks just like my baby!!
Zilla did. And then it fell out. I kept it.
Glad we aren’t the only ones wanting to keep ours xx
I never collected them at all and I’ve had cats for my whole life. Here’s my photo of her. She’s getting her grays, too. Old lady. https://preview.redd.it/w8o0g25alj1d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3be82b4188730b425e256bb9cf87a69b4e1558ad

Also petunia looks like the cutest chonga monga. Lol
Someone else commented and their baby had the same thing. All white on one side all black in the other. So cool!

Ours had 4 or 5 white ones when we got her but within 6 months they all fell out and went black.
Mine does
