Thank you! The whiskers were done with some stiff quilters cotton thread I found in my sewing kit. It's basically the stiffness of actual whiskers so each one is just a loose straight stitch that I didn't pull all the way through the fabric.

Love it! Must be what makes the angles look just right for whiskers; some buoyant, some affected by gravity. Brilliant job.
