Cats ARE stinky, though... the litter box is in your house
There's also just a certain...musk? It's immediately noticeable when you enter someone's house and they have a cat. I feel like the residents must get nose blind to it because they don't believe me when I tell them, but there is definitely a certain cat smell that just gets everywhere.
I think it's cat pheromones which they use to indicate wheter the place is safe. people claim you can't smell it but I can definetly smell it
Mainly depends on the flat size and how often ppl clean. At my parents place you notice the cat smell only in her room... You can guess the size of that place, as the cat has it's own "40 m^2 apartment" to sleep.
If you are in a small place and the cat always lies in the same corners is clear that they smell without washing. It's like wearing the same hoody for months without washing.
My wife and I get two cats tomorrow for our 60m^2 flat. Let's see how that pans out.
its the shit in the litterbox. or the cat just farted
There's no avoiding cleaning shit
My cat mostly shit outside for like 13 years and only started going in litter box when he got old or was trapped inside
it was nice while it lasted
Good luck cleaning a baby's ass with a litter scoop
Yeah, cat poop smells way worse than baby poop.
As someone who has had both cats and dogs basically my whole life, Idk what this cope is about cats not being stinky. Everyone who has a cat has a place that smells like cat. Same with dogs. Unless you're a compulsive cleaner and purposely cover up all smells preemptively with chemicals, you're place will smell a bit like your pet. We're all stinky babies at the end of the day.
I mean, that's their poop. Everybody's poop stinks. There's obviously mitigation strategies, but if the actual cat stinks, you should probably consult with your vet and maybe give them a bath with or without water? Cats don't usually stink...
And they spreading their musk is like part of their definition as a cat.
Exactly, which is why I always preferred to keep amphibians as pets. No smell at all. And mammals all stink.
Nothing more cuddly than a horned lizard!
