Attention cat owners :bounce3:
If you find your cat's shed whiskers laying about the house, SAVE THEM!
While I have absolutely no use for them at all, they are VERY useful for growing crystals that enable scientists to study the structure and function of proteins.
As whiskers are a key part of a cats sensory system you should never cut off a cats whiskers! Never-ever!
If, like me, you have a cat and from time to time discover a shed whisker please sent it to me. You don't have to clean it or anything. Simply deposit said whisker in a ziploc baggie or an envelope and shoot me a PM. I'll give you an address to mail it to, or if your local we can arrange a hand-off.
It's not necessary, but if you wish you can include your cat's name with the whisker/whiskers.
Thanks,
B
