You win the prize for noticing!!!!!

He was born with a birth defect. There is a small lump on his head that runs from that whisker to his eye. When he was a baby that whisker pointed straight up, when he got to about 3 months it started pointing straight down. Either way he can not move it at all. Unfortunatly from it being down all the time it folded over and basically fell off at the fold. It is growing back now but I suspect this may keep happening for life.

He is healthy, the defect has no effect on his eye, basically one paralyzed whisker to deal with.

Very cool, he looks like he is doing just fine without it, and it looks like he pre-tastes all his food with the left whisker! I love how he shakes it super fast to taste it!
 
Very nice-looking RTC!
