If a cat's whiskers are trimmed, it will lose some of its hunting abilities. Without whiskers, it will easily lose its sense of direction and distance, will not be able to run fast, and will lose its coordination, walking unsteadily. Moreover, because it cannot accurately judge direction and distance, it may become timid or constantly anxious.

A cat's whiskers don't just grow around its mouth; it also has short whiskers on its cheeks and around its eyes. Whiskers play a significant role in a cat's life and are very important to it. Don't intentionally trim a cat's whiskers.
