Cali'sl licking habit
Hi- My sweet little Calico, Cali is getting along better with Randi, etc.
but she has the WEIRDEST habit!! She has slept with me every night since I adopted her about a month ago, but she lays on my pillow around my head and licks my hair!!! Like ALOT! I keep pushing her away because even though I wash my hair every day, I use gel & hairspray & other gook (my hair is short and I wear it kind punked out alot) - I'm thinking what does she like about it and how is it going to harm her? But I can't stay awake ALL night to keep stopping her - yesterday morning when I woke up the whole top of my head was damp!!! She's a NUT! Otherwise quite normal, sweet, purrs nonstop (especially on my pillow), eats & drinks normally. Any ideas? Thanks, Carol |

Thanks, Carol So ... wash the cat with your shampoo and do the bit with the gel and some hair spray. She'll take up licking herself or quit licking you. LOL Had Siamese years ago that liked/licked my balding head whenever I used Dr. Bronners peppermint soap. After washing him a few times with Dr. Bronners, the novelty wore off. |

My hair is so long she doesnt do it very often anymore (gets all caught up in her mouth), or she makes sure she gets my hairline right by my forhead, but my poor husband who has a military hair cut often gets quite a bath. We've noticed as she has gotten older she has grown out of it... just a few licks and she is done. We figure its her way of showing her love and 'grooming' us like she does to Gabe once in a while. |
