Is it just me, or do cats have cheesy smelling feet? ;o)

Lily has developed a habit of shoving her feet in my face when she's
sprawled beside me, and they are usually a tad wiffy! ;o)

I don't detect any odor on either of my cats' feet.

It depends on what they have been walking in or on, I think. Mine don't
normally have smelly paws, but there are times after a rather productive
visit to the litter box when the whole animal has a distinct aroma.


So a bit like humans after the morning visit to the bathroom following
consumption of a particualrly spicy curry the night before.

Is that too much information???

Cheers, helen s ;-)

If the smell isn't related to what she's been walking in recently, I'd
suggest she needs to go to the vet. 'Cheesy smelling' is a good indicator of
a fungus infection in humans (or in their shoes at least).... one assumes it
would be the same for cats.

So do I. I live near the curry capital of the UK, and I have recipes which
I'm happy to share if any of you can get Indian spices.

Hold on, let me grab a cat.

grabs Rufous

Rufous' feet don't really smell like anything, the same neutral/sweet
smell his fur has.
