Hi Janome,

There is a possibility that Daisy is chewing the kittens whiskers off. This may sound odd, but it is a way a cat may show affection. Mother kitties will sometimes chew off the whiskers of their favorite kitten in the litter. This is so that they are not likely to go far, and will be safe.

Either that, or the short whiskers are just because the cats are playing rough. It's not something you have to worry about. Whiskers will grow back.

Regards,
PHKitkat
