Hell yeah, kitty! This new box DOES smell fresh and ready for fun, right?
This is how I found out one of my cats loves bacon. And the other loves popcorn and cheese its.
My roommate’s cat will maul us for a cheez-it.
I just moved and my cat really really wanted to smell the tape measure. I don’t know why, but it’s always like a minute long process along the length I happen to have out. I wouldn’t dare deny her, especially when she is so thorough.
my cat is sad.
no one else in his family is a cat
we are all human except for him
he is excluded from most things
and no one tells him why
he just wants to play
and be loved
he looks at us with wonder
and disappointment
he says hello i am a cat what is my existence
what is that / why it and not me / please can you look at me and love me too
can i have some of your food please im sorry i dont like my food so much
do you want to play with my toys? this one is my favourite
do you like me
are we brothers
why didnt i grow up
why am i so small
can you help me be happy
where are you going

My cat hates other cats which is why he is my cat.
He really has it all figured out.
I used to do walk abouts in the pantry with my calico in my arm, opening up stuff, and she sniffing it and giving her opinions on it lol, she wanted to sniff everything, god bless her little soul.
Oh, that’s adorable! I did the same with mine but she quickly decided that they all stank and wanted none of it. She’s still suspicious to this day when I give her something to smell. 😅
I like to let my dog sniff each food as I take it out of the bags and put it away. I figure, if I can broaden his world, why not? He seems to enjoy his role in the process
Same, I also pick her up and show her the counter top in the kitchen if I spend a long time in there, just so she knows what’s going on
Yes but not bananas. If either of them get to sniff bananas they just take a big bite, skin and all.
Not only this but I pick my cat up so she can smell things she normally can’t reach. Or get to a bug on the ceiling.
My boy is fixated on a paint chip high up on the wall at least once a week. He thinks its a fly. I have to pick him up and let him inspect it every time or he starts jumping
This is the way
My cats all love to play “Super Kitty”, which is pretty much me picking them up and “flying” them around the room while making jet engine noises.
Yes. All the time.
Yes, and my dog too. She always sniffs it very seriously, especially if it’s a package that has been delivered. It’s a big deal to them.
Yeah, if they look like they’re curious.
I always let my dog sniff my coffee or beer or whatever I have, she always has a funny over the top reaction
smell is awesome because it has a massive potential time delay. like inagine if every sound came with distant echoes of every other sound it encountered on the way to your ear
My girl was from a feral colony and let herself into my window repeatedly until I adopted her. She’s weird with food; anything I show her she runs away from. I think she used to get beat up anytime she tried to eat something. I’m slowly teaching her it’s ok to share food
I do this with my dog. When I unpack groceries, I give him everything to sniff for 2-3 seconds. I think new smells is something exciting for them.
