My kitten, now 8-9 weeks old is living in my bedroom now. She prefers it up there, and I have her in there now also due to some other issues that are family related (no need to go into details). I've kitten-proofed the room and she has all her toys, food, litter box, a cat bed on the ground (although she prefers my bed), and a scratching strip (IScratch) in there for her.
Anyways, I've found that she goes NUTS for the smell of two things that are really weird.
The first is I Can't Believe It's Not Butter spray. I spray this stuff on my popcorn like candy and she smells it from a good distance away and comes running. It's not the popcorn, it's the spray because when I put the bottle somewhere away from the popcorn, she tries to get to it. Weird.
The second is even more strange. She LOVES the smell of a firearm solvent called Hoppes #9. I'm not a hunter or anything like that, but I do compete in target shooting and when I'm done I have to clean the pistol and use Hoppes #9. She is very much attracted to the smell of this. Any ideas on why? I store it way up on a shelf where she can't get to it because it's toxic if she were to drink or taste it but she LOVES the smell.
These two things she loves. Catnip - not yet. Any ideas as to why she's attracted to these two things?
