This month’s cat vocabulary is scent. A very important thing to cats. They have an excellent sense of smell. Probably better than many humans. They can smell their prey, if they hunt. If not, then they smell their food. They even smell us and can learn what our unique smell is. Especially if our appearance changes too much for them to recognize us just by looking at us.
