Are you a native English speaker? "whiskers" is a common euphemism for a moustache. I would be very surprised if a native speaker didn't know that, or couldn't infer from context.

It's not euphemism, whiskers are literally what a moustache is made from. A whisker is an individual male facial hair.

It’s not that rare of a word, but I wouldn't say it’s particularly common either. Definitely not a common word amongst anyone under the age of 40.
I accept the ambiguity there, but the mention of “voice” and “interminable brief” are more than enough to coax you to the right interpretation.

Nope

Whiskers are a mustache. It's not a kind of cat, it is the antenna hairs that cats have around their nose.
Oh you're right
