One cat we had was addicted to Polo Mints, and would drool copiously at the merest hint of one. Our current cat likes licking the top of the toothpaste tube while she watches me do my morning ritual, and it is now part of her ritual too. She seems to prefer spearmint flavour.@phdiabetic and @Oldvatr , I think my cat likes me, as it's been purring in my lap for the last half hour, but I suspect it has a problem with anything to do with diabetes. Just now it attacked the needle of my insulin pen right when I did the air-shot. Lucky it didn't get wounded or injected with a unit of fast-acting. The good thing is that this particular cat eats anything as long as I try to keep it from eating, so should it ever get injected by accident I'll only have to pretend it isn't allowed to eat the dextro tablets
She is 9 human years old now, and still chases fluff around the floor or string snakes. I am not against cats at all except when they decide not to use the kittylitter tray provided or go outside into the lovely garden on a sunny day - then I let them know my displeasure.....
