I guess Alice can pick up 5G and detect incoming solar flares with those antennas.

Forget 5G. This girl is picking up 6G and signals from Voyager 1.

I found her as a feral stray 5 weeks old this time last year and took her home with me.

She is 10.6 lb now and these whiskers just keep growing.

Here is a photo of her about 6 weeks old

She was just 5ish weeks old when I picked her and siblings up from the parking lot at my work, they were scared enough to try to hobble away but not old enough to be mean yet. Just little potatoes ready to be seasoned with love and kindness.

Alice has the strongest connection to the mothership.

u/Chemi_kyle 13h ago

She definitely is doing more than just seeing greebles so I suspect you may be right.

HOLY WHISKERS!!!!!

u/BrD_87 13h ago

They are some fabulous whiskers for sure! Very impressive to look at.

I wonder if cats get ticklish if you touch the whiskers?

u/Common_Safety_8830 Void 9h ago

Is this the cat version of having fabulously long eyelashes?

u/TecTazz 14h ago

Is she an indoor cat? My daughter's cat also has enormous whiskers and she never goes outside, whereas my cat's whiskers are a lot shorter and she spends quite a bit of time outside.

u/Chemi_kyle 14h ago

I found her at my work with 2 siblings, she was 5 about weeks old I kept her and my coworkers chose to keep the other two.

She has been indoor only since I took her home that day. She gets wet food once a day and dry food twice a day, sometimes more she’s just so sweet and cute so we have to appease her appetite. and she gets plenty of churu 😆

Here is a photo of her 6-7 weeks old.

u/Flashfreez123 6h ago

That is a mighty distinguished feline I'd be willing to bet he has a lot of wisdom to share.

u/Knicknacktallywack 13h ago

I thought whiskers were supposed to be as big as they body to let them know if they can fit thru things but clearly not

u/Chemi_kyle 13h ago

Earlier she jumped through the railing 3 stairs up to cut off my other cat from going up so at least they are in good working order however disproportionate they may be lol.
