the inspection
… it‘s not „smell your hand“.
It‘s smell „where you have been an what you have done“.
And for an indoor-inprisoned cat it‘s an idea of freedom.
We have a cat that loves the smell of the back of your knees.
@exocomics What does your hand smell like?
Hmmmmm - Cheetos!
I got this Kitty who is big on scent & does this exact thing.
I assume it may be from a higher sense of smell over sight for some cats & needs to inspect me prior to proceeding with a small grooming.
Wouldn't want to smell like anyone else unexpectedly?
The funny part, she wants to smell the hand after petting.
Smell it~ 🫴🐽🐈
