What does your cat smell like?

At Epona's suggestion, I thought I'd start a thread with this question!

There have been times when both my kids smell like cookies - thanks to the miracle of vanilla extract, but Ginger's standard fur smell reminds me of hazelnuts (be careful with your comebacks, nut lover friends!)

I love to bury my nose in the fur on the back of her neck!

As far as Ferris is concerned, I can't get my nose close enough to his fur to tell, LOL!

How about YOU? What do YOUR kitties smell like?

Ivo smells slightly of musk. Gypsy smells like, well, cat. She's the cattiest-smelling cat I've personally known.

Well, considering Wiggies decided to take a dump in the closet this morning, then fell in it, he ain't smelling too pretty right now.
Pushy on the other hand, I love to bury my face in his lovely fur and breathe him in. He smells neutral, clean, doesn't remind me of anything.

Miss Moofs smells of wood-smoke at the moment shes been outside and theres lots of people with wood burning fires here (yes even in Spain it gets a tad cool now and then !)

Dino smells of lavender - cos thats the smell from the fabric softner that his blanket has been washed in

Peps...........um she dont smell

I know thats not funny, but the way you worded it really got me laughing! Poor Wiggies!

Harley and Davidson... uh, they don't smell They smell like sweet kitties!

Hmmm, it's hard to pin down a specific smell with mine - mostly just sweet and natural.

Katie smelled really yummy a few years ago when she decided it would be a good idea to roll around in chocolate flavored powdered sugar while I was baking.

Poor Wiggies!

Mine all smell like the baby powder shampoo they were recently washed in because they all smelled really 'catty'

Scratch smells like cat.

Thats how mine smell. I love to put my nose in their fur and smell them I also love to feel them breathing on me

Soph and Sev smell like my Amazing Grace perfume, Joey smells like the outside! I hate outdoor smell!!!

Sadie & Dexter smell like...
Sugar and spice and everything nice...
because that's what kitties are make of.

Duke smells kinda baby powdery....He was hiding under the sink this morning.
Sibohan smells like Satsuma body spray since she got in the way while I was getting ready for work this morning. (no worries, non toxic)

Mmmmm...I would've given her lots of kisses!


Yes, Wiggies is feeling sorry for himself. He jumped up on my husband in bed, and woke him up. DH was patting him, then sat bolt upright with "what the **** is that?!" Poor little Wig wags, I have no idea why he did that or how he got it all over his head, but we always suspected he was a little poopy-head!

Lucky smelled like Mango Tango which was the shampoo the groomer used on her. Rambo smells like wet food...since he went head first into his breakfast this morning! (that's my food obsessed boy!!)

Kandie usually smells of what ever the entree of the day is ....

Zoey usually smells sweet

That's the way Tavia is. She doesn't smell like anything but herself. But she doesn't smell bad she smells good. Is hard to explain

Hmm I don't know, I'll have to give them all a sniff when I get home and report back!

That's a whole lotta sniffing you've got to do!
Hey, you're not allergic to cats right?

My girls smell like cat food most of the time! Sometime phantom smells a little like poo especially when it gets stuck in her fur. Phenom usually smells pretty good.
