I grew up in the country, and had lots of cats around, and I was always told they used their whiskers to gauge where they could go.
Could be why the cat, that I trimmed one side of his whiskers, got stuck behind the freezer ;)

Yeah the deal with the whiskers is true, and if you are a mean little kid you can cut off one side and the cat will become a little disoriented and walk in to things.
I have seen a cat fit through some really small spaces, where I know there whiskers scrubbed, so they will go into a hole narrower than their whiskers.

A cat uses its whiskers to measure small spaces it can get into although they do on the odd occasion get it a bit wrong!

No but if it can get its whiskers through easy then the rest of its body will go.The whiskers are the widest part of its body

Yes its whiskers tell its body how wide things are

You'd be amazed at what a cat can do if it's being chased by a big dog.
