[New Product] For collecting cat whiskers! We've created a cat whisker box.

Hello, this is YOKO from Poponeko!

If you live with a cat, you might notice "cat whiskers" that have fallen off. Many cat owners probably keep them carefully, thinking, "I can't throw them away," right?

This time, we're introducing the "Cat Whiskers Box", perfect for safekeeping your cat's whiskers!

Are cat whiskers lucky charms?!

Cat whiskers are said to be lucky charms, bringing good fortune and warding off evil spirits!

It seems many cat owners enjoy collecting cat whiskers, with some saying they keep them in their wallets or stick them in their notebooks.

Cats have a total of 50 to 60 whiskers, but they only shed them about once every six months. They don't fall out that often, so finding one is quite rare.

Indeed, just having one feels like it could bring good luck, doesn't it?

The reason cat whiskers are so magnificent

The stiff and elastic cat whiskers have a captivating beauty.

However, they are not just decorative. Cat whiskers are extremely sensitive, with nerves and blood vessels running through them. They play a very important role in a cat's survival.

Cat whiskers are high-performance sensors

Cat whiskers are so sensitive they can detect air currents. They can even sense obstacles and prey in the dark.

The ability to walk smoothly in unstable places and make graceful landings after jumping is also due to whiskers maintaining their sense of balance.

"If you cut a cat's whiskers, it can't walk" is true; without whiskers, they become immobile. It is absolutely forbidden to pull out or cut your precious cat's whiskers.

Communicating emotions with whiskers

Cats appear to have expressive faces because their whiskers move so much.

When a cat is absorbed in play, its whiskers point forward. Conversely, when scared, they point backward. This makes cat whiskers even more endearing.

A special paulownia box for collecting cat whiskers has been created

Rare and lucky cat whiskers should be carefully preserved.

We recommend a "paulownia wood box" for storing cat whiskers, as it offers excellent humidity control. Paulownia boxes are often used for important items like kimonos and high-quality fruits.

In fact, paulownia wood also has high antiseptic and insect-repellent properties, making it perfect for protecting delicate items sensitive to moisture.

That's why we created the original Poponeko "Cat Whiskers Box" using paulownia wood!

Above all, we focused on the warmth characteristic of natural paulownia wood. Each box is carefully handmade by Japanese craftsmen, so the texture is superb.

Collecting your cat's whiskers will surely become an enjoyable activity!
