Don't worry, it will grow back. I had a marble cat with a broken barble and it grew back in no time. You couldn't even tell it was ever broken.
As you can probably see in a post on this page my marbled pim got beaten up by a sev and acara and they ripped some of his whiskers off. Not the whole thing but the ends and they are already almost grown back. It was just a few days ago. Maybe last wednesday.

Anybody know about forked whiskers? I saw a baby redtail yesterday and he had 2 forked whiskers? will they ever grow normal? He was 3-4", is this common?
He probably got injured at an early age. So they in turn grew backed forked. Its very rare at all. Happened to one of my angels.
