Angel, my kissy kissy gray tabby girl, who never wants to share her Mommy anyway, is like this with any of my kitties who comes home from the vet. The kitty who's been to the vet still smells like the FEAR they were feeling, and there's also the residual smell of blood and sickness from being handled by the vet, also. Remember how sensitive those kissable little noses are. I'd rub the homecoming kitty with catnip instead of a dryer sheet! How popular do you think they would be THEN?
