Custard creams is a good one.

Don't you love it in summer when they've found a nice spot outside for a sleep and they come in smelling of warm grass or hay?

Thats what Oscar smells of mostly fresh the outside. Unless its oil...from under a car Cleo alwys warm an maybe biscuits/shortbread is a good example.I know when Cleo was getting older her scent changed just slightly.

reggies breath always smells fishy,but their fur smells like fur,(just had a sniff LOL)

PUPPYYYYYY, you can't beat that smell, kittens don't really have a distinct baby smell for long do they? Puppies have a lovely smell, ahhhh.....I smelt one just this morning actually!

That's really interesting Kazz.

We know animals' sense of smell is so much better than ours - I always think that's a real pity.

Thank you all for your posts - wonderful!

Heheh what a great thread Fizz has a slightly sweet smell that is lovely, she seems to like me buring my nose in her fur Bubbles doesn't so I've not had a chance to sniff her much

And farting isn't restricted to kittens! Fizz trumps a fair amount (occasionally when her back end is near my face ugh). Then she doesn't smell so good Bubbles sometimes lets one go when she's jumping - gas assisted I think

Great thread

what a wonderful question - seems we all love to sniff our cats (like they like to sniff us). Max and Oli smell warm and cosy !, except when they have been outside then they smell foreign (especially if they have sneaked next door !!)

Funny how the fur has a comforting smell but sometimes the breath is revolting, especially as they lick themselves to spread the sent ?
