Thanks for not telling me I am disgusting, gross, and weird for writing about my strange discovery. I just had to tell someone!!!!

It's only gross for humans. For cats- if it contains fat they'll like it. I never tried though

I don't think you are disgusting at all, I think it's fascinating. You learn something every day...
Well at least you know what to do if they are ever off their food and need tempting...

One of my kitties seems fascinated by earwax as well. We have to bury the used Qtips in the trashcan in the bathroom or else he will dig them out, carry them into the living room and try to eat them (unfortunately, I've found remnants of the Qtips scattered throughout the house). There is definitely something that attracts them to it.

WOW!! You never know what you will come across when you read the treads!!Actually, ear wax(cerumen) is produced by modified sweat glands in the exteranl auditory canal. Has not fat, just wax!! Sandra

Our cat loves when my husband puts on chapstick (actually, its a burt's bees lip balm that he uses most of the time). If she smells him doing it, she will come over and want to lick him.
