You cut the thick whiskers almost to the skin? MIL caught me trimming Uni's thick whisker and she said not to, that they were the "feelers". Now I don't think they'd be as sensitive as a cat's whiskers, but do you think it would change their balance or whatever else whiskers do? Do yours flinch when you cut them?
