    Does your Cat Make "The Stinky Face"?

    Mine do this sometimes and it makes me laugh. I found this article very interesting and it's also interesting that other animals do this too. Here's the link: http://www.adobe-animal.com/HelpfulL...StinkyFace.pdf.

    Not heard it called "the stinky face," they are just trying to ID a scent. Yep, seen it on all of them at one time or another.

    This isn't a great picture, but here's Sherpa's 'stinky face'. There was something fascinating on those boxes, apparently.

    Yes! Buddy does this. Not sure if the other two do or not, but have seen Bud do it many times and always wondered what it was all about. Thanks for clearing this up for me.

    If I've been working outside, sometimes when I come in Diamond will sniff me and make "the face". (It actually has a technical term, "flehmen" (sp)?)

    LOL! That was from a movie. Now I forget which one. A movie with or about kids.

    Sparky does this , but in dogs, it's more like chattering their teeth, and the bottom lip quivers. It's comical to watch, and it always gets a LOL out of me.
