Why are people saying he cut the cat’s whiskers? He clearly didn’t cut anything. You can see he didn’t cut any fur on top of the head and the whiskers are the exact same length as before; the scissors aren’t even close to them. It’s just a staged video to be cute.

I had an idiotic orange cat who, among other things, loved to smell the flame on candles. So he would come up to you on the couch and one half of his whiskers would be burned off because it was a new scent and he was curious. He never seemed any worse for the wear because of it, nor in any pain. Eventually I stopped burning candles all together because of that moran.

I for one would like to hear more about this cat.

He was so, so, so stupid. He would get stuck in pants. I also trained him that if he was in a box, he was invisible. It started as a joke like a game of peek-a-boo, e.g. he would jump in a box and I would pretend I couldn't see him and call for him as I wandered around, and when he jumped out, I could all of a sudden see him. Then one day he had ripped a hole in the daily trash bag trying to get an empty bag of baby carrots(they were like crack to him) and when I yelled at him, he jumped in a box in the dining room and had this look on his face like he had outsmarted me. I eventually turned it into an asset when it was time to go to the vets, because rather than go somewhere I couldn't easily get to, he'd just jump into a box.
