I had to put yes, because she smells good all the time, but I'm not sure that's what the question meant. :confused:

:) Well I think the question was meant of does your pet smell with a differant smell or a bad smell.. All of mine smell good all of the time..
my cats themselves generally smell OK but what comes out of them isn't always easy on the nose, LOL
Each breed of birds have their own special odor (or lack thereof). My quakers smell great - kinda like corn chips or the fried Chinese noodles they give you with soup. Hence the name nOOdles for my youngest Quaker!
My Sennies, the budgies and the Sun Conure do not have strong odor - they just smell like clean feathers.
My female lovebird, Teacake, has a strong smell at certain times and not much of an odor at others. I think it may have to do with her mating cycle.
Generally, if a pet bird smells "bad", like stinky bad, it usually means there is something very wrong - perhaps infection.
I do volunteer work at a wild bird rescue and many wild birds have very definate smells. Crows smell FABULOUS! A healthy crow smells like a mixture of lemons, leather and cedar. The Roseate spoonbills also smell like this but the smell is much, much stronger and so it is not quite pleasant. A healthy pelican has a great smell, I can't explain it, and white pelicans smell nicer than brown. Ospreys stink! They smell very wild and strong and I don't like to be around the odor for any length of time. I let my mom's dog smell an osprey feather once and she backed away from it and then ran! Woodpeckers have a plastic-y wild sort of smell that is very unique to them.
I guess you all think I'm weird going around sniffing birds all day long, :rolleyes: but I guess I use my sense of smell more than I realized. As soon as I read this question I was like, "Oh! I have so much "smell" information to share" Hee hee!:D

The dogs and cats all smell nice the majority of the time. :) Skylar just got back from getting shaved today so he is smelling especially nice.
The old rats have been smelling rather nicely lately, too. I have been having to give them baths a bit more often since they have slacked off on grooming themselves.
The ferrets have a distinct smell about them, but it is not a bad smell.
The new hamster still has a weird petstore-funk about him. Hopefully that will wear off soon...
Donovan, my Quaker, has a great smell, too. He is my favorite bird to sniff out of my four. :DQuote:

My foster kitty, G, is not smelling too good. He's been outdoors and needs to be groomed. But I can't get him in until the 22nd. :(
Daisy smells pretty good most of the time. She has a very thick, coarse coat and sometimes she smells a little doggy after coming from outside. Delilah smells good all the time. I've never seen a dog like her. Completely fresh, no matter what.:D
Casey doesn't have any trouble smelling. It is her hearing that has gone. :D
I clicked "no" because I understood the poll as if it asked for a bad smell. Luna and Lily do have a scent of their own, but it's a good one, and I really love it. Luna's smelling like cinnamon most of the time, and Lily has a very fresh scent. I just love it! :love:

At the moment, Flossie smells pine-fresh since she had a bath yesterday evening. :D She does have her own natural scent, which isn't a nasty smell but is certainly of an acquired taste! You can't really smell it unless she's right next to your face; she has sort of a musty, warm scent.
Mine all smell fine. Sam's feet sometimes smell like Dorito(sp?) chips. He does smell bad if we let him dry after a swim in the lake without rinsing him off first.
