Re: What Does Your Cat SMELL Like?


This post has made my day!!!!!!!!!!!!! My cats do have their own smell you know when Ihaven't hugged them when I have perfume on Seriously though Dave can hold a cat in front of me and I can sniff and I know which one it is. They all smell warm and furry but I can really smell their own smell. O.K so I am weird LOL But my nose is really sensitive from when I did Beauty Therapy and did a lot of Aromatherapy. Jefferson when likes it when I bury my nose into the back of his necj for a snuzzle, he smells lovely. Can't describe the smells, of course all are clean but unique to each cat

think I will end now before any of you send the men round in white coats

To Catsmum...


Our poor cats eh if we are not measuring their ears or tums and weighing them we are burying our noses in.....

Must admit I smell Denis a lot just to make sure he is clean really and he is, doesn't remind me of anything other than Denis. I have to say though I love it when he has sweaty feet!!!!! I could never get my head round the fact that cats have proper sweaty feet....................

Re: What Does Your Cat SMELL Like?


Eva smells of warm wee, just like her old mum
No seriously, she smells good to me, so does Bernie, not sure exactly what the smell is, if its what I smell like or if its just them, but they smell lovely to me.
I love to bury my face in their fur, sadly Bernie thinks its a bit too weird and runs off, if you catch Eva in a settled mood then she just lets you sniff her and snuggle her, just dont touch the paws or the tummy, unless you want to be shredded that is.

Re: What Does Your Cat SMELL Like?


I wish we could read their minds when we're doing weird things like measuring their height at their shoulders, or the length of their tails, etc! Leia looks at me as if I have lost my mind .......she doesn't mind sniffing, though...

Re: What Does Your Cat SMELL Like?


I have laughed out loud reading these posts! Catsmum - I don't think you're going bonkers at all! It's intriguing how we relate to smell - I find it stirs up forgotten memories - I love herbal and lemony scents (scented geraniums are great). Cheerios now - I can relate to that. When I said Merlin smelt of toast, it could actually be Cheerios. Can I ask those who said warm clean fur to try and match to another more describable scent??????

Sorry, Angie, I'm a smoker and don't have that great a sense of smell...just warm clean fur smell is the best can do...

Re: What Does Your Cat SMELL Like?


I love the smell of cat. Well apart from when the kittens fart. Why do kittens fart so much?
