Leo has two whiskers that are crazy and sort up curl up...sort of close to his eyes...my husbands says we need to cut them..I say we can't...
thoughts?

Don't you dare cut those, LOL! Have you seen TeresaK's Simone's whiskers?? They are the curliest I've ever seen. I think she would be the one to give advice.. though there are many here who could help as well. I think the curly whiskers are especially sweet .

Oh yes, typical man's solution -- my husband has suggested the same thing. Never I say! LOL!! Check out this thread and see if Simone's looks anything like Leos:

LOL...to my husband's defense (I think) his concern was the whiskers might get into Leo's eyes..?
I checked out Simone's and she has Leo beat!

I think from time to time Simone's has got in her eye and caused it to inflame a little - but overall, she doesn't seem to have any problems with them. Yes, my husband wanted to cut for the same reason, because it looks like it can get in her eye. I figure if it does a good swipe with the paw will basically remove it. Come on - give us a closeup of Leo's whiskers!

You have to look close it hard to see them...but the curly ones are there

Awww, I can see the one that goes up around the outside and curls back in! How cute. We're fortunate to have raggies with curly whiskers - not many do I think!

Haha, Leo's look like the old time handlebar mustache! Too cute!

Leo's whiskers really make him extra handsome. I say leave em alone.
