What is the trick with the Cat Wiskers?
Is there a trick to getting the outside rubber and inside cat wickers off
with out destroying them? Those little clips are crazy things!

Grab it behind the head on the neck and pull them out quick,But watch out for the claws, They tend to get pissed when you pull there whiskers out.

Re: What is the trick with the Cat Wiskers?
By design, they always seem to get bent beyond repair when removing. Luckily they are cheap to buy.

Re: What is the trick with the Cat Wiskers?
I'm not sure I would try pulling the whiskers from that cat. I mean, I do have limits, And that one looks pretty nasty.
