In reply to Janny. That's interesting. She might just be curious, but it's unusual that she would like something fruity, as cats aren't at all fond of citrus smells. Every cat is unique!

My cat seems to love my perfume. She wants to smell it when I have it on. she also likes to smell it from a paperstrip. It’s a flowery fruity perfume with vanilla.

In reply to Joanne Veltri. Exactly! A cat's sense of smell is pretty amazing, so if the litter smell can be picked up by humans, it's going to be way too strong for cats.

I have always said those fancy smelling litters ate NOT what cats like! They are for the owners’ noses. But what good is a litter a cat will not use if it cannot stand to smell it.

In reply to Robin. It sort of happens without a second thought. Since we aren't as perceptive of smells as cats, we don't even know we're doing something our cat hates! The more information put out there to help raise awareness of this issue, the better. :)

This is a great point! I think that, as humans, we tend to think very little about how the ingredients in products we use will affect our cats. There are a lot of harmful products out there. This information makes me glad that I’m not a big fan of perfume!

In reply to Shanna. Some people definitely have trouble with perfume. It gives my mom migraines if she is around someone with too much scent on. Have you tried Paw Melts candles? They're 100% safe for cats. Regular candles, even soy mixes, contain paraffin (not good for humans OR cats!).

In reply to Ellen Pilch. Thank you! Yes, they do. Tippy's eyes get red if we use any perfume or air freshener.

I’m with the kitties on this one. My own nose is super sensitive to perfumes. I don’t mind home fragrances, but don’t use any out of respect for my cats. Once in a while, I will light a candle.

Excellent post. Cats have very sensitive noses.
