Cats and mint

[Supertrooper]

Now I fully admit that our boy is not normal, he is ginger/white so is a character anyway but can anyone explain why he loves the smell of mint so much?

Every night when I've brushed my teeth he has to smell them! This involves him sitting on my chest and trying to shove his nose into my mouth so he can sniff my teeth.

Tonight I had to take some Gaviscon and this sent him a bit crackers as he had to nibble my nose also ;-)

It's a good job I adore him isn't it xx

My tortie girl is the same, she would like to shove her head in my mouth after I've brushed and will sit on the side of the sink when I'm brushing waiting to lick my spit!

Thank god he doesn't do that, he does like to rub his teeth on my brush though!

This is him checking my teeth out (pls excuse the awful face I'm pulling but it's a bit freaky having a cat trying to get in your mouth and I was killing myself laughing)

Also I have no idea why it's upside down ;-)

Adult Cats find mint like a narcotic get them some Cat Mint I have some large Cat mint plants in the garden and the cats love rolling and playing in them.
Young cats do like mint.
