Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / February 2004Am I insane?
I just love the smell of cat BREATH. Am I the only one? > I just love the smell of cat BREATH. > > Am I the only one? Can't say I've ever smelled anything on Persia's breath. But it's not quite the same as dog breath, or puppy breath, is it? I love to bury my nose in Persia's side and sniff... she smells sort of sweet :) Jill Mutt's breath isn't bad. It's fresh. Umm.. except when she's been raiding the trash bag for one of Eve's diaper deposits.. *grrrr* Grace > > I just love the smell of cat BREATH. > > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Jill Dog breath is awful. Nauseating, actually. Cat breath is rotten in its own way but it's a very different smell. You hafta get right up close and sniff while they're yawning, or else pry their little teefies apart and stick your nose right in there. Try it and let me know.... :D > > I just love the smell of cat BREATH. > > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Jill > Dog breath is awful. Nauseating, actually.

I never really thought about that as a big whiff of lion breath. Annie >> I just love the smell of cat BREATH. >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Jill My mom loves puppy breath. Karen >I love to bury my nose in Persia's side and sniff... she smells sort of >sweet :) Cats seem to have pretty subtle scents. I guess they're constantly deodorizing themselves by licking. Speaking of which, I sometimes wonder why they're not thirsty all the time, with all the licking that they do. Cats are a feast for the senses though. When I hold Betty, I like to drape her over my shoulder and hold her against my ear, so that I can hear her purr. She doesn't seem to mind me treating her like a seashell. :) >> I love to bury my nose in Persia's side and sniff... she smells sort >> of sweet :) [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > hear her purr. She doesn't seem to mind me treating her like a > seashell. :) Awwww, I do that with Persia too! She gently digs her front paws into my back and "hugs" me and I sort of dance around with her on my shoulder and listen to her purrrrrrrrrrrr. Jill >>I love to bury my nose in Persia's side and sniff... she smells sort of >>sweet :) Jill, Frank smells like that too. Almost very vauguely perfumey. Maybe it's from being loved on by us, and it's a mix of the cologne and stuff we wear. Sherry >>> I love to bury my nose in Persia's side and sniff... she smells >>> sort of sweet :) [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Sherry Maybe, Sherry, but I'd swear she smells faintly of Bay Rum or something spicy-sweet...! Nothing to account for this scent. I do love it, though :) >>>I love to bury my nose in Persia's side and sniff... she smells sort of >>>sweet :) > >Jill, Frank smells like that too.

Also, maybe you're using scented cat litter? :) >I just love the smell of cat BREATH. > >Am I the only one? Don't like it when she has been eating fish! Love the smell of Evil 3's furry little bodies....but cat breath...not appealing, though not Godawful. Think it's their diet, different from hoomins. : >I just love the smell of cat BREATH. : > : >Am I the only one? : > : Don't like it when she has been eating fish! > I just love the smell of cat BREATH. > Am I the only one? You just haven't smelled my cat's breath. :) When Licorice licks the tip of my nose, I get a strong whiff, and whew!! Glad that doesn't happen all the time.

I don't know what to do to help him, since his tummy gets upset from all brands of supposedly tooth-cleaning kibble I've tried, and he retches at the kitty toothpaste. I give him fresh meat about every second day, hoping that that will help keep his teeth clean. It's a bit of a worry each time he has to have his teeth cleaned, because the older he gets, the harder the anaesthesia seems to be on him.

My vet recommended raw chicken necks for dental health. Shmogg didn't like them, of course, but Frank might.

Well, you haven't smelled Jazz's breath. :X SignatureIrulan from the stars we came, to the stars we return from now until the end of time > I just love the smell of cat BREATH. > > Am I the only one? Hmmmm, maybe ;-) The only time I ever sniff Vino's breath is when he comes up to tell me that he's starving and it's time for his canned food dinner. I can tell he's lying most of the time because I can smell dry food on his breath! -- Britta Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album >> I just love the smell of cat BREATH. >> >> Am I the only one? > >Hmmmm, maybe ;-) >The only time I ever sniff Vino's breat Proably. Suz Macmoosette Thank Heavens There's Only One =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= =^..^= I've learned to not sweat the petty things, and not pet the sweaty things. >I just love the smell of cat BREATH. > >Am I the only one? Kenzie's breath is rather pleasant to smell; not at all foul of 'off'. It just sort of smells like ...Kenzie! And I love to smell her fur. It smells fresh and clean. Sometimes I pick her up and tickle her tummy with my nose. But only for a little while, as once she's had enough, she has a good bunny kick! ~~~~~~~~ Life without cats would be only marginally worth living. TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie. How you behave towards cats here below determines your status in Heaven. - Robert Heinlein >I just love the smell of cat BREATH. > >Am I the only one? Cats seem to like human breath, so we're probably expected to reciprocate. :) >I just love the smell of cat BREATH. > >Am I the only one? You haven't smelt "old-dead-mouse-breath" himself - a.k.a. Marble... I do believe that there could be some UN convention relating to his breath... On the other hand, Waffles and Francis are fine.

My cats' breath smells like cat food. Steve. Well after reading all these replies, I guess I must be insane after all. The cat-breath odor I'm referring to apparently is not what most people would consider pleasant. But the truth is that one big reason for having cats around me is addiction to the unique smell of their breath. If I was able to do it, I would also have sheep, simply so I could listen to their voices. I love the sound of sheep, just like I love the smell of cats' breath. > Well after reading all these replies, I guess I must be insane after all. > The cat-breath odor I'm referring to apparently is not what most people [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > voices.
