smells

i forgot how much of an urhghghghh-fest it is to replenish a cat litter tray, especially if it hasnt been done for ages. but, actually, i have a massive amount of respect for my cat for ever venturing to go in there. why? think of it in this way.

cats have approximately twice the sense of smell as humans. i consider cat litter to be one of the most extreme smells that a human nose is ever going to encounter - and cats, especially one as old and housebound as my chessie, would venture in and get the double the pungent dose, pretty much every day.

i often wonder the coincidence is tantamount to torture, that the things that involve cats smell so flipping much (cat food as well) and yet they have to bear with it more than i do.

in true south park moral-of-the-story style, "i think i learned something today."

what though?

"poo smells."
